Self catering accommodation in Sandwich |
|
Sandwich is a beautifully preserved medieval town,
with old town walls. It was one of the Cinque Ports and still
has many original medieval buildings. While once a major port,
it is now two miles from the sea, its historic centre preserved.
Sandwich has had at least eight windmills over the centuries,
the earliest reference to a mill being dated 1608. Within the
old town walls the many period houses, with their characteristic
"Kent peg" roofs, are laid out in a street plan which
has changed little since the creation of the Domesday book in
1086. |

| Primrose Cottage Sandwich Sandwich Kent (In Sandwich) |
Sleeps 4. Located in one of the oldest streets in the medieval
Cinque Port town of Sandwich, Primrose Cottage, a charming early
17th Century building, which has historically been a shop and
latterly a tea-shop, is full of character. There are so many
quaint cobbled streets with interesting shops, museums, art galleries
and much more to explore with refreshments available from a choice
of tea-rooms, restaurants and pubs. The Quay and the adjacent
Barbican Gate - the entrance to the town, is an attractive area
- enjoy watching the boats moored on the River Stour - or cycle
along the marked paths. |
