Good greasy spoon cafes! Honestly, it's not the nicest part. Lots of building projects around Cornwall though. My DPs lodgers are all builders of some kind.

Redruth is fine. It's a small town so may be a bit of a shock after Manchester. Almost non-existent night life. But several festivals a year, monthly markets, big arts centre, range of independent shops.
Well situated for easy transport links around the county. Only a few miles from the best beaches in Cornwall.
It's had a bad reputation for years but we've got loads of friends who live there and love it. Proper working town and good community spirit.
