If you only have one week to spend in Sandwich, there are plenty of things you can do to make the most of your time. Here are some suggestions:
- Visit the historic Sandwich Guildhall Museum - it's full of interesting artefacts and exhibits, and should take you around an hour or two to explore.
- Take a walk around the medieval town centre, including the ancient town walls and St Peter's Church - this should take half a day at most, but you could easily spend longer if you want to take your time and appreciate the sights.
- Explore the Secret Gardens of Sandwich - this hidden gem is a favourite with local residents, and you can easily spend a few hours strolling around the beautiful gardens and admiring the flowers and wildlife.
- Drive or walk to nearby Richborough Roman Fort & Ampitheatre - this should take around 20 minutes to reach by car, or an hour or two if you prefer to walk.
- Head to the coast and visit the Sandwich Bay Bird Observatory - this is a great place to watch migratory birds and you can spend as much or as little time here as you like.
When it comes to places to stay, Sandwich offers a range of options to suit all budgets. There are some great guesthouses and B&Bs in the town centre, as well as several chain hotels on the outskirts. If you're looking for something a bit more special, there are also some lovely boutique hotels and self-catering cottages available. Spend some time researching your options and choose a place that suits your needs and preferences.
