I found this museum fascinating. Plenty of interesting exhibits inside and out as well as an excellent view over the claypit. Everything is very well presented with useful information boards. Well worth taking a close look at the models inside before and after you view the exhibits outside as they really helped me to understand the processes.

Great day out with plenty to do, see and walk around. Really interesting and learnt lots of info around the clay mining as a whole. Completely dog friendly (everywhere!) very friendly and helpful staff with a fab little gem of a cafe (very yummy and well priced). We will definitely re-visit next time we are in the area. Highly recommend!

We were staying nearby and visited Wheal Martyn three times during the week.
Our first visit on a showery day meant that after tea and cake we mostly explored the displays under cover and learned about the history of the industry an d clay extraction.
Later in the week on a sunnier day we were able to to use the same ticket to visit and this time explored the heritage trail of the outdoor archaeology which was fascinating. We also walked the nature trails which were very peaceful.
Our third visit we used the cafe before walking part of the Clay Trail towards St Austell.
The gift shop is well stocked, and there is a great range of books about Cornwall including the industrial history of the area. I love it!

Enjoyable morning would have stayed longer but weather closed in. Lots of displays given a little map to follow the trail. Starts inside takes you through the history and interactive bits. Then outside past working waterwheel lots of things to see in the different buildings brings to life what it would have been like.
We walked to the top to see the working up to date quarry, it is vast. would recommend this place very informative.
The young lady on the desk was lovely to chat to she spoke a little bit of Cornish dialect and was very enthusiastic about her heritage. Really nice to chat with her. Nice little coffee shop only no food as they had not had a bread delivery.

On holiday in Cornwall with umpteen gardens and not a few historic house, this was the place i wanted to visit. It did not disappoint. I had a recollection of visiting about 40 years ago, and I wanted to return. It was partly why we chose the area. (OK the other reason was a Project just up the road).
Make no mistake, it is an industrial museum. It shows what they had to do to get the china clay. The inventions, the processes, it underlines the graft of over a hundred years ago. It made me stop and think about what levels of ingenuity were mixed with practicality and basic common sense.
The only down side was that at my age (and lack of fitness) I could not do it all. We shall have to return.
Incidentally we happened to call on 'Heritage Day'. So the archivist gave us a run through of the stored records. I could have spent the day there. Thank You.
Should we return to Cornwall, for me Wheal Martin deserves another visit.
PS we come from the Potteries so maybe I am biased. Shame they did not use British crockery in the cafe

A very interesting museum. I could have spent all day there had I been on my own,but we had our 2 granddaughters with us.
They particularly enjoyed the crafting. However the young lady in charge needs to be proactive,explaining what to do to the young children. It wasn't even busy so she had plenty of time to do so.Making clay figures both my 9 year old granddaughter and a young boy were upset that the heads fell off after quite some effort spent making them. At that point the young woman remarked "oh you need to score lines in the clay before attaching the head". For goodness sake why doesn't she tell the kids beforehand ?

Fascinating place depicting the history of Cornwall's China Clay Industry. As most of it is outdoors it is weather dependent. However, there is an indoor museum, coffee shop and gift shop. Very informative, friendly staff and interesting artefacts. There are great views out over the working pits and lovely wooded areas with interesting items to see. It's a little hard to find. Cornwall's best kept secret might just remain that way unless the signage us improved! The lady in the cafe is friendly but soooo slow! Be prepared to queue!

A review in 2 parts. We came this week with our 2 children 9 and 6. The whole site is very informative and food is a reasonable price.
Our kids are very creative and this is where we felt you missed a trick. They would love to have made something in clay to take home, the painting of a cup was a little boring and didnt really challenge their immaginations. How about the opportunity to create their own piskies etc ? Would love to see more for kids to interact with.
As a museum it was good and there was a lot of information but feel there could be more.
Some parts of the grounds were overgrown and unkept, almost missed some of it due to this. How about some pixie doors in the tree trunks, make it fun for the smaller kids ?
Just observations, overall we had a good time but doubt we would be back I am afraid.

Thank you for taking time to leave a review.
I am sorry you didn't feel there was enough to challenge the children. We change our workshops around throughout the holidays and have done piskie making workshops and different trails through the woods as well as fantasy egg making, pottery workshops etc so I apologize you didn't feel the activities were enough on your visit.
Sorry we wont be seeing you again but I hope overall you enjoyed your visit to Cornwall.

It was a lovely time to spend a couple of hours. The museum was very interesting. A climb to the top with amazing views of the quarry was well worth it.

It really depends on how much time you spend reading the information panels etc but generally around 2 hours.

The indoor museum is flat but due to the nature of the Victorian clay-works the outdoor site is on an incline. We could offer a discounted rate if you just wanted to come along to the indoor museum.

Id say no, even though some of it is inside, you have to walk outside between the different buildings which are not very insulated so it will be cold and drafty.

Hello, dogs are welcome throughout the site with the exception of the cafe, however they are allowed in the atrium area adjacent to the cafe where there are a number of tables and chairs available so that visitors with dogs can also relax and enjoy a drink or snack

Yes they are, but not on the carpeted area. There is a hard floored indoors area in the reception, and a (lovely) weather dependent area outside.
You can walk the dog through the cafe to get outside and the staff are very understanding.
