Benson's is situated on the edge of the old tin mining villages of Carharrack and St Day close to the Gwennap section of the Cornish Mining World Heritage site.
The Mineral Tramways trail network for cyclists and walkers is within very easy reach.
A 10 minute drive brings you to the surfing beaches of Porthtowan and Portreath. Newquay's famous beaches are just 30 minutes away.
At the end of your busy day, a fine glass of ale or wine, with a serving of excellent food can be enjoyed at one or more of the local pubs.
The Cornish Way, the best way to see this is on a bicycle! At Benson's we have secure storage if you bring your own cycles, but you can also hire them from Bissoe Tramways who offer a delivery service. Please ask us for more details.
The Mineral Tramways trail network offers the chance to walk, horse ride or cycle through the remarkable remains of this area's 19th century mining heyday.
If you enjoy gardens, then a visit to Trelissick (NT) just outside Truro and the glorious sub-tropical gardens of Trebah which has its own beach near Falmouth are a must!
The Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project are within a short drive of Benson's.
