Dove Cottage - Upper Strand Street
Sandwich, Kent
Welcome to this charming, period home located on a lovely hidden road just behind the Bell Hotel and the river bank in Sandwich. The pallet of fresh white walls, exposed beams, wooden floors and soft carpets give the house a homely, easy-going feel which will suit most guests looking for a relaxed location to unwind.
The house consists of two floors. One front facing twin bedroom and a large double bedroom with a refreshing en suite. The deceptively large, comfortable reception room and relaxed dining room are on the ground floor, along with the well equipped kitchen, an accessible bathroom and a utility area. The property has a spacious and very attractive rear garden. Access to the garden is via the ground floor at the back of the building; however the addition of French doors in the dining room allows you to enjoy the lovely garden sunlight from the comfort of the dining room.
