We took the museum tour rather than the mine tour.
Thankfully the people in the ticket office recommended that we could join in with the mine tour people who were seeing an introductory video but I guess this was more serendipity with timing than anything else so don’t expect it upon your visit.
The museum had an interesting history of the site and the mine, mainly covering the boom & interest from the 70/80s version of Poldark. But it was rather cluttered and more could possibly done with less items. It may be worth asking for a guide to describe some of the exhibits in the museum.
Given the recent popularity in The recent Poldark series, I Would probably recommend to people in order to visit and support this, but probably needs to declutter and tidy up the museum.

When my wife an avid fan of the TV series Poldark, suggested a holiday to Cornwall, I knew I would have to endure something that involved Poldark!
Staying in Mullion had I done my research I am sure I would have seen the adverts for the ‘Poldark Mines’ and figured out her intentions and maybe read a few of the reviews on google before wasting the fuel to drive to the mine.
In hindsight having read the owners calculated responses to more negative reviews I will choose my wording carefully.
It was upsetting to hear that the mine had closed due to the previous owner’s poor financial management. Although it is somewhat concerning that the current owners are not far behind the previous with their financially clownish signage.
I am sure the current owner will snub me for only visiting the car park however when amateur signs are plentiful and especially when they read:-
Smoke Free Zone
Please Do Not Smoke Outside Our Gates
Restricted Items: Cigarettes’, E-Cigarettes’, Lighters, Matches, Mobile
Phones, Music Players, All Photographic Equipment, Backpacks,
Handbags cannot be taken into the mine & should be left in your car.
In principle totally agree the smoke free zone absolutely fantastic for families. However, advising visitors to leave valuable items in cars is lunacy. With Cornwall’s rich history of Piracy, smuggling and skulduggery, I was somewhat concerned, even more so when the bottom of your car park looks like “Step-toe and Sons” yard.
Being concerned about the risks I spoke with the Cornish Police who strongly advised against this practice, oddly as does every other police force in the country! Unless your liability insurance allows this practice, which I doubt, your advice could place you at risk if visitors take your advice leaving handbags, camera etc in their vehicles.
Now let’s be clear restoration of this location is an important heritage project but a long-term project. Third party organisations will only fund you so far, success is about long-term financial income. Having the ability to put paying customers off in the car park isn’t a recipe for long-term success!
On the plus side I did escape my nemesis that is "Poldark" :)
Wow don't usually update reviews but visited Geevor Tin Mine today amazingly haunting walking through changing rooms felt the life that had once been there even met some of the miners who worked the mine before it sadly closed in 1990. Definitely worth the money. £45 for family of 5 ????
Update 12/08/2018. So to the obtuse owner some advice. I might have liked to help you raise your 250k for the full restoration, as might others. However before any investor would consider investment they might look at your replies to customers or potential customers. It is very clear that Poldark Mine is not a tourist destination. Like most people I would like a memento of my trip to a historic site, it's kinda the point of having a camera. In respect to your comment about being insulting to the Cornish, I have raised my review with a number of friendly Cornish folk all of which were shocked at your attitude towards visitors. All laughed at your toy guns comment and felt was a clear indication that your venture is not family friendly. No need for me to judge your fellow countrymen already have you seem to be rather well known locally. I wish you the best of luck with your venture but being able to accept a little constructive criticism might pay dividend.

The poldark mine tour happens twice a day and is always fun, and some appreciation how they had to mine addtion height due the average height was 5' 1''. It is good to go down if you especially a fan of the poldark tv series as they talk about where they filmed the first three season down the mine.
