The Blazing Donkey Country Hotel, Sandwich

An individual privately owned and run country hotel and restaurant, just a few minutes from Sandwich & Deal, with Dover and cross channel services within 10 minutes drive.

Accoladed English cuisine. Picture-postcard gardens and award winning Samphire Restaurant. Golf packages offered featuring Princes Championship Links, Royal St. Georges and Royal Cinque Ports.

A rare quality emphasised by truly first class guest comforts, with a understated style of traditional English elegance is what you may expect of the guest rooms each offering high speed wireless internet at no cost.

Dining is a feast of variety; while locally landed fish is a speciality, a wide selection of international and local cuisine is offered in the acclaimed restaurant. Pre dinner drinks are hosted in the bar lounge where open fires blaze in the Winter. And in the warmer Summer months guests can benefit from views of the impressive lawns and gardens from the terrace while enjoying their favourite meal or drink.

Personally run by owners, Richard & Sherry Martin, The Blazing Donkey is a wonderfully versatile hotel, ideal for weddings, romantic breaks, business travel, and of course holidays. It's also a ideal base for touring golfers attracted by the Kent coast's abundance of quality golf courses, including world famous Royal St Georges, host golf club to the 2011 British Open.

The Blazing Donkey's award winning guest rooms are set around a pretty stabled courtyard offering private access and secure parking to guests. Superb views of the surrounding countryside can be enjoyed from all rooms. Four Poster Rooms are offered in addition to standard double occupancy rooms.
