Experience Cornwall with Cornish Gems, curating stays that care for the planet and your soul. B-Corp accredited and luxury-driven, its Eco-Conscious Gems blend comfort with sustainability, with green energy, EV chargers, and native gardens.
Perched high above the sparkling creeks of the Helford and just 10 minutes from Falmouth Bay, Alta is an elegant timber-clad hideaway set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Surrounded by 1.5 acres of lush gardens and woodland, this stunning home offers the perfect setting for family gatherings, nature-filled escapes, or celebrations with friends.
The main house features four thoughtfully designed bedrooms, including two luxurious suites with vaulted ceilings, south-facing balconies, and ensuite bathrooms. A separate modern annex nestled among fir trees offers an additional private space for two, complete with ensuite, kitchenette, and living area.
Inside, the home is filled with natural light and calming colours. The open-plan kitchen and dining area is perfect for long, leisurely meals, while the spacious lounge with full-height glass doors invites you to unwind and take in panoramic views of the landscape, all the way to Goonhilly Downs.
Sustainability meets comfort at Alta; the property features an EV charger for overnight use (free of charge), a rewilded garden area, and zero light pollution—perfect for stargazing under Cornwall’s dark skies.
Outdoors, the experience continues; relax in the six-seater Jacuzzi, sip cocktails by the fire pit, or lounge on the sea-view terrace overlooking Polwheveral Creek. Young guests can roam freely through blooming gardens, play games in the dedicated room with table tennis and darts, or enjoy the croquet lawn on sunny days.
Located in the charming village of Constantine—featured among The Times’ best secret villages—Alta is a gateway to some of Cornwall’s most magical spots. Explore the Helford River by kayak or paddleboard, swim in the calm waters of Polwheveral Creek, or discover hidden, dog-friendly beaches like Grebe and Bosveal. Visit Potager Garden Café for a slow breakfast or enjoy ocean-fresh dining at nearby Hooked on the Rocks. For breathtaking views and coastal walks, don’t miss Kynance Cove—named one of the top 10 beaches in the world.
Whether you're chasing coastal adventures or quiet luxury, Alta offers a peaceful and unforgettable escape immersed in Cornwall’s natural beauty.
