 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. |

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.
