Location
Located adjacent to the 1066 Battle of Hastings' battlefield, you've got one of the most famous sites of English history right on your doorstep. Nearby beaches are complemented by a rich tradition for good food. The black fishing huts that line the seafront are a hint to the fishing heritage that's celebrated at the Seafood & Wine Festival in September. A short hop away, Eastbourne and Brighton offer excellent shopping and beaches
