Site Plan

Ideally located

Gwel Basset is ideally located in Tolgus, on the western edge of Redruth and with impressive views towards the famous Basset Monument atop the dramatic 700ft outcrop of Carn Brea.

Formerly the centre of Cornwall’s tin mining industry, Redruth has a rich history and is a busy, diverse town, with access to schools, restaurants, cafes, pubs, shops and leisure centre as a well as craft and cultural activities. The nearby free Heartlands visitor attraction is hugely popular with families and offers 19 acres of green space, exhibitions, play areas and all-weather entertainment options.

Together with Camborne, the towns act as a gateway to the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site and the areas are well placed for leisure and commuting, with Tolgus just 10 miles from Truro and four miles from Cornwall’s stunning north coast.

Sustainable Living

At Treveth we’re taking the lead when it comes to delivering low carbon development and showing that it is possible to build net zero ready homes in volume. And Gwel Bassett is one the largest residential projects in the UK designed to achieve challenging carbon emissions targets set for 2030.
