Welcome to Prideaux Place This stunningly beautiful Elizabethan manor house overlooks the picturesque fishing harbour of Padstow in North Cornwall. When Peter and Elisabeth Prideaux-Brune arrived in 1988, a huge challenge lay before them. Today, you can see the fruits of this labour of love and be enchanted by Prideaux Place and the stories surrounding it. This stunningly beautiful Elizabethan manor house overlooks the picturesque fishing harbour of Padstow in North Cornwall.   Prideaux Place has changed little in the last four centuries. The house as seen today is almost entirely the work of three members of the family; Sir Nicholas Prideaux in the 16th century, Edmund Prideaux in the 18th century and the Rev. Charles Prideaux-Bune in the early 19th century. It combines traditional Elizabethan architecture with the 18th century exuberance of Strawberry Hill Gothic.
