The Lieutenant`s Quarter

Roseland, Cornwall

Occupying a spot in the picturesque Roseland Peninsula of Cornwall, the Lieutenant’s Quarter offers a unique holiday experience in a former military officer’s quarter. While the exterior of the building may appear stern, the interior is inviting and cozy, featuring a one-bedroom layout complete with a snuggle-worthy fireplace and a bright, modern kitchen. The windows provide stunning sea views, allowing guests to enjoy the beauty of the surrounding landscape from the comfort of their accommodation.

This charming holiday cottage is part of a collection that includes Tiffy’s, The Major’s, and The Captain’s Quarter, all perched high on St Anthony Head. These historical buildings were preserved after the Trust acquired the area in 1959, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the rich history of this former military fortification site. The location not only offers a glimpse into the past but also provides a tranquil retreat for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

For beach enthusiasts, the small coves of Great Molunan and Little Molunan are just a short walk away, providing opportunities for sunbathing and swimming. Additionally, the quaint fishing village of Portscatho is a mere 10-minute drive from the property, making it an ideal spot for enjoying a cultural experience or a leisurely pub lunch. The combination of natural beauty and local charm makes this area a perfect destination for a relaxing getaway.

By choosing to stay at the Lieutenant’s Quarter, guests not only enjoy a memorable holiday but also contribute to the preservation of this significant historic site for future generations. This blend of comfort, history, and scenic beauty makes the Lieutenant’s Quarter an exceptional choice for those seeking a unique and enriching experience in South West England.
