This is one of the first projects planned by The Duchy of Cornwall for the Newquay Growth Area. The new building will replace the existing Lilena Care Home, which currently provides accommodation for residents with mental health problems on two separate sites in the town, and will expand the facilities to provide a new home for fifty residents. The new building is planned on two storeys with a secluded central garden court like a traditional almshouse surrounded by a continuous two-tier cloister. The residents' accommodation is divided into five clusters, each with a lounge, dining room and quiet room on the ground floor and most of the ten residents' rooms on the first floor. All the residents' rooms face outwards onto private gardens, one for each cluster; but for reasons of personal privacy, none face onto the street. One of the clusters includes an annex, planned as a two-storey two-bedroom house to form a transition between living in the home and returning to the outside world. The building is planned with its entrance façade fronting the main square of the first phase of the Growth Area development.
