Really brilliant. I expected somewhere very commercialised, but this is very much not that - it so much better. It's real mine buildings, preserved and restored, with a lot of original machinery, much of it working. Our guide was knowledgeable and interesting and explained everything, and demonstrated the equipment. We learned a lot about the tin mining and the people who worked here and why this area was so important. Lots of context to start our exploration of neighbouring sites.

A wonderfully morning guided around King Edward Mine Musem Staff were very helpful, after a tour you can go and have a drink and a snack or a meal in a separate place weather permitting there is a lovely place outside. Plenty of parking spaces, but there are great walks from Camborne using the old footpaths/bridleways.

This visit was definitely the highlight of our holiday in Cornwall. The guided tour for just my husband & I was so interesting, we learnt so much about the history of the area and the mine itself. Our guide certainly brought everything to life. When we went back to look at everything in more detail, we found that she had actually told us everything and more! A fantastic museum, thank you to all the friendly volunteers and especially our wonderful guide.

Great little gem showcasing some of Cornwall's mining history. We started with a lovely lunch at the cafe on the same site as the museum. We then bought our tickets for the museum and although they didn't have anyone immediately available to tour us around, we very soon caught up with Alan who was doing the tour for a few others, so we joined him for the remainder. What a great place with loads of history and mining equipment. Alan was very knowledgeable and told us all about the mining process... And I'm not normally that interested in that sort of stuff to be honest, but I was surprised that I managed to listen and actually enjoy the tour The cherry on the cake is that they allow dogs to come along too, which is an essential for us travelling Cornwall in a camper with our dog. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

This museum is spectacular and well worth a visit. Located near to Camborne in beautiful countryside. We started our day having breakfast at the Croust, which was very enjoyable, allowing our dog inside as well. Then we visited the museum and had the pleasure of a guide whose name was Liz, she was related to miners from this mine and explained everything with great detail. We found it all so interesting and to be in the company of someone who had a personal connection was fantastic. Well done to all of the staff who are doing a brilliant job of keeping this important part of Cornwall's heritage for everyone to experience. We will be visiting again, thankyou to everyone.

Absolutely fantastic tour to history of mines and Cornwall. Enjoyed every minute of tour with amazing guide. We could ask questions and received lots of information. Was interesting for kids and adults. Machinery of old times in action inspired us so much. Also we can see differences how Cornwall was look like hundreds of years back. Highly recommended to come and see.
