Great Flat Lode Trail

Local info:

The Great Flat Lode Trail is a 7.5 mile (12km) circular trail in the heart of the

historic Camborne-Redruth mining district.

The trail is multi-use for walking, cycling and horse riding.

Centred on the impressive hill of Carn Brea this trail is named after the ore vein which was

the centre of the tin mining activity here.

Information boards at the mining sites close to the trail provide further information on the

history and working of the mines which were famous for their tin and copper production.

For those wishing to make a small detour from the trail, the top of Carn Brea offers fine

views of Cornwall's Atlantic coast and it is possible to explore the slopes where the

remains of Neolithic and Iron Age occupation have been found. The Carn Brea Castle

restaurant and the Basset monument are other points of interest.

Most of the trail is off-road. The trail can be used by walkers, cyclists and by horse riders.

If cycling, it is advisable to use a mountain bike.

NOTE: All groups of people under 30 will have to pay a £300 refundable deposit a couple of weeks prior to arrival. This will be returned within a week after departure providing there is no damage.

One of the oldest towns in Cornwall, Redruth has a jam packed heritage in mining that reaches right back to the bronze age. From you holiday cottage in Redruth you’ll be on the doorstep of history. In the 19th century, Redruth was the centre of Cornwall’s once-rich tin mining industry and was the richest and largest metal mining area of the UK and was an integral part of the industrial revolution. A hotbed of industrial invention and home even to gas lighting, this incredible town was pivotal in the spread of Cornish goods and culture all over the modern world.

Whilst no longer an industrial mining town, much of this rich history remains on show in the clean, sunny streets which are lined with the grand buildings of a commercial past, with highlights including the Butter Market, Victorian theatre, the Coffee Tavern and the old mining exchange which once held boisterous auctions for locally mined copper and tin. Many of these old building have now been repurposed and although carefully preserved, now play host to holiday makers venturing out from their Redruth holiday cottages to enjoy fine foods, Cornish cream tea and coffee. Antique and vintage clothing shops also abound in many of Redruth’s historic buildings and there’s plenty of curiosities and history to keep even the least keen shoppers occupied.

Old mining tracks running from Redruth, close to many of the holiday cottages for rent in Redruth, now offer beautiful, near-level cycle and walking trails which are perfect for exploring the stunning Cornish countryside around Redruth. There’s also plenty of opportunity to stop off along the way for a pasty, a cream tea, or even a traditional Cornish cyder.

Close to town are plenty attractions for visitors on a rental cottage holiday in Redruth, including the watersports and angling centre at Stithians Lake and Country Park which is a great spot to get out sailing and windsurfing without the risks of the open ocean. One of the county’s top free visitor attractions, Heartlands, is also close by, offering 19 acres of fun packed family adventure including gardens, exhibitions, climb-on sculptures, craft studios and a giant adventure playground. You can learn even more about Cornish mining heritage at the National Trust’s Cornish Mines and Engines discovery centre at East Pool mine, or go further back in time at the 5,000 year old Neolithic hill fort remains and 18th century castle, near Barn Crea. You can even go shopping crazy and Cornwall Gold at Treasure Park, which houses the largest jewelry collection in Cornwall.

Whatever you choose to do, our holiday lettings and rental cottages in Redruth will be the perfect place for relaxing amidst Cornwall’s rich historic past.

Trevithick Retreat is a lovely peaceful place. It is not for the elderly or disabled; no handrails on the stairs and a ladder into the pool, and no shallow end. It was clean, restful, and a lovely friendly host. It is set in a rural area with shops nearby, and plenty of parking space. Good bathroom and shower room, comfortable beds. Good place to relax overall.

Really lovely accommodation in a very quiet area. Local shops, pubs and supermarkets very nearby which was great. Karen left us a lovely welcome pack and there was milk in the fridge which was most welcome as we didn't have chance to pick any up on the way. The swimming pool was amazing and the kids really enjoyed it. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything you needed for self catering. We visited lots of different areas with the kids and had a great holiday. It is a perfect location in a perfect setting.

This is a great place for a holiday! The location was excellent for getting about, to different parts of Cornwall, although we were also very happy to just spend time at the house, in the pool, garden and hot tub. It was a lovely, peaceful location with fantastic views. Very comfortable beds and a lovely living/dining area plus a great kitchen. Karen is a really friendly and helpful host, and we definitely plan to visit Trevithick Retreat again, and will recommend to others (unless they might try and book it when we want to!)

This was the best holiday that my family and I have ever had in England. We loved the house and in particular the indoor swimming pool, which was a lot bigger than we thought it would be. We purchased some inflatables and watched a film in the pool, which was amazing. Karen was absolutely lovely and gave us lots of tips of places to visit. Some of our favourite places were St Michael's Mount, Falmouth, the maritime museum and catching the St Erth's train to Carbis Bay and St Ives. All bedrooms were a good size and it was handy having bathrooms on each floor. We would love to stay again.

The location was very central and easy to get around Cornwall, but not much to do in Redruth, except some lovely walks up the hill!

Well, what can you say about a holiday that has a private pool! Karen & Robbie has done a fantastic job with this property.
We decided to have a staycation, instead of going abroad for our final family holiday. We found this little gem whilst looking for a dog friendly location, booked it instantly. Upon arrival we were greeted by Karen & Robie who showed us around. They had left us a welcome package, including one for our dog, a lovely touch. Local produce is a great way to start wanting more, not a fan of red wine, however I came home with a few of these bottles. The weather was fabulous, great views from the garden. You may not have Seaviews from within the cottage, as stated, but wonderful scenery throughout, magical sunset evenings in the garden. The Hot tub was ideal, after a long drive down.

So would I recommend this Holiday Hideaway? Yes we would, loved it so much, we're deciding on a date to go again to the same property. If it rains the whole week, would we care? No. It's the Holiday home with a private pool and friendly welcome that made it Perfect!

Thanks Karen & Robbie
See you again

This was a truly wonderful place to spend the week at, location was great and amenities were superb, my only gripe is that none of the bedroom windows opened to allow air inside the rooms, there seemed to be a ventilation vent, but that's all and it was extremely warm, and there was only 1 fan for 3 bedrooms, aircon is definitely needed especially during the warmer months.

This location was absolutely incredible! If you want a little home away from home, this is the place to be. Karen was so accomodating, gave us a lovely welcome and tour of the home and was available if we needed her at any point during our stay. We had everything we could possibly need, and the short walk to the store was beautiful and enjoyable to stock up on food and snacks. We enjoyed the easy access to public transportation and utilized it to go to Port Isaac, St. Michael's Mount, and St. Ives. If you want a true Cornish experience, I'd highly recommend staying here!

The amenities were excellent, full use was made of the swimming pool, pool table and jacuzzi. The house was extremely comfortable so, on a day when the weather wasn’t great, we didn’t feel as though some of our holiday was wasted. Karen and Robbie were excellent hosts and were on hand should we have any queries. The welcome pack was also a lovely touch. The location of the property meant to go to local beaches was only a short drive away, and less than an hour to other popular resorts. Would definitely stay there again.

We were only about 20-30 minutes travel to all the places we planned to visit like St Ives, Penzance, Newquay, Padstow, Truro, St Agnes and more. Accommodation is high spec and fitted out with everything you need. Supermarket and food outlets only a few minutes away but the house is so quiet. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and would definitely return. Owners very friendly and helpful.

Very clean throughout and had everything you needed for self catering. The owners, Karen and Robbie were lovely, showed us everything we needed to know. Nice guides of where to go and the nearest beach is only 5 minute drive with good parking. It's a great beach for rock pooling.... although not advertised as a sea view you can see the horizon of the see clearly. I watched the sun set over sea every evening from the cottage. I wanted to go back again this year but with school age children it's all booked which is not surprising. A little gem this place, can not wait to return one day....

All the facilities were spot on and we couldn't have asked for better. Really enjoyed our stay.

Just one thing to note is that the particulars say 4 bathrooms where as in fact it has one bathroom with shower (no toilet), one shower room with toilet and two separate toilets. It wasn't a problem but just the particulars I found a little confusing. Saying this we would thoroughly recommend people to stay at this wonderful property.

We loved our holiday here. We went as a whole family, me, my husband, son, daughter, son-in-law 2 granddaughters aged 2 and 4 and our dog.Everything we needed was there also a welcome box which even included dog chews. We had 1 day of rain but it just meant we could all play in the pool for the day. The nearby town is quite run down but it did not spoil our visit to Cornwall at all as we could travel everywhere as it is very central. We would certainly go again. Only 1 thing I would add would be a small spin dryer by the pool so that when we had a shower the costumes would be dryer quicker, ready for the next swim. Thank you Karen and Robbie for making our first family holiday in Cornwall 'one to remember'.

Our stay at Trevithick Retreat was absolutely perfect! First let me start by saying that our hosts were extremely kind and helpful. Upon arrival, they spent time with us, showing us the house and how to work the pool, Jacuzzi, etc. They were very “down to Earth”, super-friendly and easy to talk to.

As for the accommodation – I could not have picked a more perfect place to stay. I would definitely recommend this to anyone, and I certainly hope we get the chance to visit the area again as I would love to stay in the same house. It is a perfect retreat for any time of year! It has all of the amenities you could possibly want or need.

The house and grounds were immaculate and very well decorated. The pool and Jacuzzi were amazing and the temperature of both were just perfect. There were great pool toys available for use, which we all loved. It was also so cool to be able to have the TV on while in it. It was great to be in the pool, and still be able to watch the Olympic events on the TV, or have music on! The sound system was awesome. Playing pool and ping pong were a lot of fun too. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with everything you need to cook and entertain. The beds are super comfortable. The gardens and outside entertaining area were lovely and very well kept. The house was very private and just so comfortable and cozy!

I was also very pleasantly surprised that they had also done some shopping to provide us with a few food and drink supplies to get us started. I had not anticipated that at all as this has never happened at any other place we have rented. What an amazing touch to the rental! They really had thought of everything to make this stay wonderful for us. I am so impressed!

We have rented many places, in different countries, and this is by far my favorite place!

We absolutely loved staying here. Everything about the property was wonderful, in particular the amazing pool area and the hot tub! Having the tv or music on whilst in the pool was an added attraction! The lounge/kitchen/dining area was great for relaxing in the evening and all of the beds were incredibly comfortable. The hosts couldn't have been more helpful and welcoming. An ideal location for exploring local beaches and attractions. We hope to return in the future!

Overall the house and facilities were excellent. The pool is amazing and we struggled to get the kids to come out which allowed us to really relax.
Great location for visiting, St Ives, Falmouth and Newquay.

Beautiful house in a great location.
We were lucky with the weather but if you had a rainy day it would be no problem to stay at the house, there is plenty to keep you entertained.
Owners live next door, so any problems or advice about the area is easy to obtain.
Redruth was great base to explore this part of our lovely country, we visited lands end, lizard, st Michaels mount, Falmouth, st ives and many little villages in the area.
Would thouroughly recommend

A lovely house with an amazing swimming, and hot tub. Beautifully decorated with everything brand new. Weather wasn't so kind to us, so the warm clean pool was our saving grace. Robbie and Karen were great . Easy train ride to St Ives and 30 mins from Newquay, this is the ideal holiday home to stay at.
Highly recommended

An incredible holiday, thanks to the outstanding property - Trevithick Retreat was a real indulgence, enjoyed by all and we can't wait to return! The pool and hot tub were such a wonderful feature and Robbie and Karen made so many lovely gestures throughout our stay (including a really thoughtful welcome pack of delicious treats!), we felt really well looked after! It's a fantastic base for exploring the best of Cornwall - without hesitation we would absolutely recommend this holiday!

Our family has just returned from a fantastic stay here, we were welcomed in and was delighted to find everything was even better than the photos.
We loved the fire by our pool, it was truly relaxing and the kids were always busy :)

AMAZING - Location is just perfect, views are stunning - Laura was very helpful and the cottage was modern, had everything we needed. Having a pool to ourselves was just unreal, felt like a celeb on holiday! We had one rainy day so we stayed in, this was one of the best days of the holiday! We are booking again for 2017
