About Hastings

Two massive cliffs bookend this ancient fishing port, creating one of England's most dramatic coastal settings. Hastings refuses to be just another seaside resort - it's got proper grit alongside the tourist trails. The Old Town huddles beneath East Hill, where fishing boats still haul their catch onto the shingle at Rock-a-Nore Station.

Wander up from the seafront and you'll find The Hermitage, carved into the sandstone cliff face, and nearby caves like Minnis Rock that tell stories of smugglers and saints. The Electric Palace brings culture to the mix with regular performances, while galleries like Black Arches and Legacies showcase local artists.

Beyond the town centre, the landscape opens into rolling countryside. Fire Hill and Guestling Hill offer cracking walks with views across the channel, while North's Seat provides a lovely vantage point over the Rother Valley. Fairlight Glen Naturist Beach lies to the east - fair warning if you're after a family stroll.

Getting here couldn't be easier. Direct trains from London reach the main station in 90 minutes, while smaller halts at Ore, Three Oaks and Doleham serve the surrounding area. The A21 cuts straight through if you're driving.

Staying at one of the holiday parks dotted around makes perfect sense. Places like Coghurst Hall Holiday Park and Combe Haven Holiday Park put you within striking distance of both coast and countryside, while Winchelsea Sands Holiday Park offers easy access to the medieval streets of Winchelsea. You're close enough for fish and chips on the beach, yet far enough from the crowds to enjoy some peace.
