Find the right Care Home in Cornwall with Lottie

Cornwall’s care homes reflect the country’s charming character. From the sweeping coastline of St Ives to the historic harbour at Falmouth, many care homes make the most of their surroundings with sea-facing lounges, stunning garden terraces, and even access to nearby coastal paths for gentle outings. The Royal Cornwall Hospital in Truro offers a central point for more complex medical needs, supported by smaller community hospitals and GP practices across the county.

Across Cornwall, you’ll find everything from small, family-run homes to larger homes specifically built for older adults. Many of these purpose-built homes are packed with state-of-the-art facilities, such as Falmouth Court, which has communal and private dining spaces, a hairdressing salon, a bistro-style restaurant, an activity room, and even a spa. This home is operated by Barchester Healthcare, one of the country’s most trusted care providers.

Homes offering nursing care in Cornwall, like Kernow House, provide 24-hour support for those living with more complex medical needs. Other homes such as The Poldhu focus on dignified personal care, with residents supported with tasks such as getting dressed, washing, and using the bathroom, while still being encouraged to remain independent.

Family support is also a strong focus across Cornwall homes, with many offering family lounges and ensuring that relatives are actively included in critical care decisions. Others provide digital care updates or regular newsletters so relatives can stay informed and feel connected, even from a distance.

Every care home above is fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and carefully reviewed by our in-house Care Experts. Rest assured, we only partner with the area’s very best homes. We help care-seekers navigate the best options with confidence and clarity, including sending you a free, personalised shortlist of care homes that reflects your budget, care needs, and other preferences.
