The Roseland Peninsula, or just Roseland, is an area of Cornwall in the United Kingdom. Roseland is located in the south of the Duchy and contains villages such as St Mawes and St Just. It is a peninsula, separated from the remainder of Cornwall by the River Fal.

Place House was the seat of the Spry family for several hundred years.

It must now be gaining publicity from the envious description written by Joe Bennett in his new travel book "Mustn't Grumble".
