Spend a day where history lingers around every corner…

Begin your morning wandering the beautiful grounds of the Benjamin Nye Homestead, where peaceful trout pools and centuries-old gardens invite you to slow down and breathe.

Next, head to Sandy Neck Beach. Walk the rolling dunes, watch the osprey overhead, and take in one of Cape Cod’s most breathtaking stretches of shoreline.

Spend the afternoon exploring Heritage Museums & Gardens, where winding paths, colorful blooms, and hidden corners make every season magical.

Stop by the Sandwich Glass Museum and don’t miss the live glassblowing demonstrations—held on the hour, every hour. Watching molten glass transform into art never gets old.

When hunger calls, settle into The Dunbar House for afternoon tea or a leisurely lunch surrounded by the charm of a historic sea captain’s home.

Before the day ends, visit the iconic Grist Mill, where the gentle sound of the flowing stream has welcomed visitors for generations.

Then simply wander historic downtown Sandwich. Browse charming boutiques, admire the centuries-old architecture, discover hidden gardens, and end the evening with an ice cream in hand as the village settles into its golden-hour glow.

Some places are meant to be rushed.

Sandwich isn’t one of them.

The second flush is here…

Just when you think the garden has given its best, the roses surprise you all over again.

Our second flush has arrived, filling the gardens with vibrant pink blooms, soft fragrance, and that unmistakable feeling of a Cape Cod summer. Every morning brings a few more blossoms, making each stroll through the gardens a little different than the day before.

Whether you’re joining us for afternoon tea, a chef’s dinner, or simply passing by, take a moment to slow down and enjoy the roses.

We’re still dreaming about July’s Chef’s Dinner…

From the seared yellowfin tuna to summer corn chowder, perfectly roasted beef tri-tip, and that unforgettable peach & raspberry cobbler—it was one of those dinners we’re still talking about.

Now it’s time for August’s Chef’s Dinner, and Chef Patrick has created another incredible seasonal menu featuring fresh local ingredients, butter-poached lobster, herb-roasted beef tri-tip, and a beautiful summer peach crumble.

Our first evening sold out! Because of the response, we’ve opened a second night—and there are still tables available for Thursday, August 6 at 6:00 PM.

If you’ve been waiting to experience one of our intimate four-course dinners, now’s the time. These evenings have become one of the highlights of the summer at Dunbar House, and we’d love to have you join us.
