City/town information
Hastings Old Town - Slightly bohemian and artsy, the old town comes with oodles of quirk. Its muddle of houses, shops and pubs sit tucked between two cliffs a fifteen-minute walk east of Hastings main town. Slightly worn in places, Hastings Old Town has a wealth of character and a welcoming community feel. It’s small enough to explore on foot but there’s enough to keep you busy for a weekend.
