Rose Hall Great House

Removed from Unnamed collection

Cinnamon Hill is a treasure trove of history and charm. Built in 1734 by Edward Barrett, the house has a lineage that includes the famous poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Over the years, it passed through the hands of George Robertson and Joseph Shore before the Henderson family took over. In the 1960s, John Rollins acquired it, and then in the early 70s, the legendary Johnny Cash made it his home. After Johnny and June Carter Cash passed away, the Rollins family, led by Michele Rollins, reclaimed it in 2012.

Whispers of ghosts wandering through the halls add an air of mystery to Cinnamon Hill. Visitors, including the Cash family themselves, have shared tales of ghostly encounters. Yet, the true allure lies in the Cinnamon Hill Great House. Its island architecture is a visual delight, featuring native flowers and the mesmerizing dance of iridescent hummingbirds. The home still echoes with the spirit of the "Man in Black." Inside, it feels like time has stood still. Family photographs line the walls, a crocodile Johnny once caught sits as a testament to his adventurous spirit, and his well-worn work boots remain, a touchstone of his presence.

For those interested in exploring the area further, Cinnamon Hill is nestled in the lush landscape of Jamaica's north coast. The surrounding region offers stunning beaches and vibrant local culture worth experiencing. Whether you’re a fan of history, music, or simply the beauty of the Caribbean, this spot is a must-visit.
