  • Mr Rice

    A wonderful opportunity to stay in a house so old and part of history. Very comfy bed, lovely shower, totally unique and beautiful garden. We found Sandwich was delightful, it was quiet yet so many cafes and pubs open that we ran out of days to try them all. Special mention to the ‘No name French Bistro’, fabulous cheese and coffee. The town ‘wall’ walk was so lovely we did in several days and there were lots of other walks provided at the house to try, which was very handy.

  • Mr Bunnage

    The property was well situated in the Old Town of sandwich, 10 minute walk to town center. The property was very quaint in keeping with the location. The owners were very friendly and helpful and the property was well maintained. We stayed for two weeks and found a lot of interesting places to visit all within an hours drive.

  • Mrs Munday

    The Short House offers extremely comfortable and characterful accommodation in a quiet location despite facing a road. It is within walking distance of Sandwich town centre and roads to the North, East and West are easily accessible. There is private parking and the use of a secluded garden area. The owners are friendly, helpful but discreet and provide a generous welcome basket. A delightful place to relax.
