VFR approach versus visual?

Just looking for a bit of advice here from UK based controllers.
Inbound IFR in Class G then become visual 10 miles out. Is there any advantage/help for the pilot or ATC to declare visual or request a "VFR approach"? I'm a little unclear. If "visual" and cleared visual approach the go-around is standard but VFR approach it can be a circuit?

In all my years of IFR or VFR I've just declared visual and cleared visual approach.
Cheers,
SS
