Liz Giuffre from The Music said "Overall, a mixed bag rather than a themed album, and while there are flashes of the different 'types' of Whitlams of the past, Sancho carves its own path.[2]
David James Young from NME said "A wistful, endearing collection of songs from a seemingly-evergreen band, Sancho will have fans feeling thankful that such a triumph has arisen out of such a tragedy."[1]
