Redruth is situated on the trunk road between London and Land’s End, just to the east of St. Ives, the west of Truro, north east of Penzance, and north west of Falmouth. It’s still got a market town atmosphere, but grew wealthy off its 18th century mining industry, so the centre of town is an elegant array of Georgian, Edwardian and Victorian architecture — Redruth was once home to one of the riches square miles in the UK, which included the world’s first ever gas-lit townhouse. Some of the best places to stay in Redruth have been converted from historic mansions and townhouses.
As well as being an excellent choice for a central Cornish base, Redruth offers guests excellent market-town shopping, an impressive clock tower, a pretty parish church, an old castle and prehistoric remains — just outside of town. There are also numerous reminders of the area’s mining past, some which are part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The best places to stay in Redruth put guests within a very short drive of many Cornish treasures, including Newquay and Padstow, and it’s only 25 minutes drive from St. Michael’s Mount, half an hour from Bodmin, and just 45 minutes from the Eden Project. A perfect base for exploring Cornwall by car!
