A new visitor guidebook helps turn Sandwich into a family adventure.
Town Trails & Terrible Tales: Sandwich, Kent is a printed guide that tells the story of this Cinque Port twice in a single booklet:
– Adults get the architecture and history.
– Children get the slimy, spooky and gross stories.
This essential visitor guide divides the town’s must-see landmarks into three themed trails:
• Trail 1: Pirates, Ports & Hidden Alleys (1.1 miles, around 1.5 hours)
• Trail 2: Wild Walls & Ancient Ruins (outer town and beyond, a half-day or full-day excursion on foot, by bike or by car)
• Trail 3: Castles, Kings & Courtrooms (1.4 miles, 2 to 3 hours)
Together the trails offer more than six hours of exploring and the guidebook also includes a double-page map, a rainy-day plan of indoor shelters and a tracker sheet for families to record each completed trail.
Available to buy from the bookshop Spellbound in Sandwich.
I spent the Summer in Sandwich having grown up here between 1982-2002 and returning regularly to see family and friends. During those summer days it struck me that although there was a free map for visitors, a bit more info written for both kids and adults would help those exploring the town.
I hope you enjoy this essential visitor guide.
