Not just a Tin Mine but now a hive of activity with its pottery makers, wood turners, local craft workshops and candle makers to name but a few is by far Cornwall´s most popular heritage sites. Evening Ghost Tours of the candle lit Mine run on Tuesdays and Thursdays in July and August.

Cornwall's Top Ten Family Attractions by Dinah Hatch

"One for older children, the fabulously atmospheric Poldark tin mine is well known as a haunted hotspot and the ghost tours conducted here are huge fun. Paranormal investigators lead you through dripping caves by candlelight to tell you of strange goings on in the mine. Regular tours also explain tin mining from medieval times to the 1780s and are a fascinating insight into a mainstay of Cornish industry."
