My husband and I moved to Hastings from London 11 years ago to raise our 3 children. They have all left home now and it is very quiet! I am a deputy head teacher at a local school and my husband is a retired plumber. We have a modern 4 bedroom detached house with a beautiful tropical garden and easy access to the train station, woodland walks, the sea front and Old Town centre. It is a perfect base to explore East Sussex from Brighton through to Rye and Camber Sands. Direct trains take you to Ashford Designer Outlet and with one change you can be in Central London in under 2 hours.

About the Area
We live in a quiet residential street with easy access to the town. We are 5 minutes walk from the bus stop which takes you to most of East Sussex and 10 minutes walk from the train station. There are many local attractions including the new pier, the sea front resort with restaurants and shops, the Abbey in Battle on the site of the Battle of Hastings, a country park, kayak and paddle board hire and many special events throughout the year. Day trips to London are always popular with visitors with quick rail links and coach services.
