The Guard House nestles against the Elizabethan Garrison walls and has a private garden terrace, formerly a cannon battery, with panoramic views of the harbour and islands of Samson, Bryher, Tresco and St Martins. Garden furniture, and barbecue are provided.
The Guard House was constructed in the early 17th century and as the name suggests, was originally constructed adjacent to the main gated entrance to the fortified garrison area.
The interior of the cottage has been carefully refurbished to retain the traditional character of the property whilst providing a beautifully furnished and equipped base for an enjoyable holiday.
