Welcome to our page of accommodation in Hastings!
Hastings is situated on the south east coast between Eastbourne
and Dover. It is a town with a great deal of history, for it
was here that William the Conqueror came ashore before his historic
battle with King Harold in 1066, and where he set up his headquarters.
The castle William built on West Hill has practically gone (the
cliff has crumbled away over the centuries), but there are plenty
of other interesting things left to see in Hastings. Although
the port as well as many of the town's buildings are now under
the sea (only 2 out of 7 medieval churches remain), a walk around
the Old Town will reveal a large number of well preserved buildings.
Once the head of The Cinque Ports, the harbour disappeared in
the great storm of 1287, but despite this Hastings still supports
the largest fleet of beach-launched fishing boats in Britain.
