- I travel to Hastings direct from London using Southeastern Railway! Find out why it's the perfect seaside day trip, some great restaurants, things to do, photo ops, shopping and more!
With a pretty pier lined with multi-coloured beach huts, top seafood restaurants, the Jerwood Gallery, bookshops, cute cafes, England’s steepest funicular railway, an old high street lined with independent stores, Source Park, and hidden gems galore - Hastings offers plenty of things to do.
In my video I take you on a whistle-stop tour of my favourite places in Hastings. Be sure to stick around until the end for a bit of a surprise!
Find out more about my day trip to Hastings in my blog packed with the top things to do, places to eat and great photo opportunities: www.wanderlust...
My day trip to Hastings was sponsored by Southeastern. If you fancy booking a trip to Hastings or somewhere else in East Sussex or Kent, check out the advance purchase offers from Southeastern this Summer starting from as little as £10! Find out more here: bit.ly/2rd1Js1
As always, opinions are my own.
Big thanks to Verity Gunning for helping out, providing lots of giggles and helping me eat a mountain of amazing food! Sisters really are the best!
Also huge thanks to the local businesses of Hastings and Hastings Tourist Board. Keep doing what you're doing - it's awesome!

Thanks for saying such nice things about my town. 😁
My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed the video!
I have lived in Hastings for 48 years and it's changed but still had a magic.They say if you have lived here for more than 7 years you'll probably stay......I have!
Great video.Thankyou x
Lived there many years ago and great memories, especially my time playing for Hasting & Bexhill RFC. - spent many a drunken Saturday night in the old pavillion at the Polegrove park before heading into town to French's pub.
Great video! We loved Hastings when we made our road trip from Holland all the way to Cornwall. Hastings was a nice stop over for us.
Thank you! It's a great day trip from London too.
Dutch Nomad Couple we made our Trip from Germany for 1 week in Hastings
Thanks. I Love this Video from Hastings.
So lovely to hear from you Achim - thanks for watching!
I love this video. Thanks for sharing.
So kind! Thanks for your comment!
Awesome video however with dating a guy from hastings he makes the point so much where you visited was The Old Town which is so lovely. Hastings is a bit further up and into st leonards x
@@B72Gary I agree. I also hate the ponsy pier now. I am hoping new Eastbourne owner turns it back to something like it used to be, where you can give kids a fiver and not see them for hours.
@@BLane-xr1ic I don't think we agree. Anyway the following link pretty much sums it up. 🙃

I go Hastings alot and I like how well, you captured it. Brilliant video. Thumbs up
Awww that's so kind of you to comment. Thank you!
nice smile to open the vlog at the train station it really sets the tone for such a cheerful video, plus great wide eyed look when you take a taste of your foaming drink in the cafe - sure Hastingsonians will be pleased with this upbeat view of the seaside town :-)
I hope so! I really enjoyed the trip!
Beautiful scenic walks to be had over Fairlight Glen
The museum is fantastic. They have the world´s first TV, as TV was invented there.
No way! I didn't know that! Heading back soon :)
stujenner: John Logie Baird based his system on the Nipkow disk, patented by Paul Julius Gottlieb Nipkow in 1885.

I really miss this place, I've been here from 1983-1985, Gillman Hill rd, St.Leonard. My old school. Thanks for the great video.
How lovely! Thank you for watching.
I LIVE THERE
Will be returning to St. Leonards after 4 years in Chile. Will send link to your video to my students here. Many thanks.

Victoria Jane i heard it s very dangerous in night very ?
@@hadilhadel9158 yeh it can be quite aggressive around town on a night out

You should have left the seagul part in as that is 100% hastings......they would take your dog if they could carry it and eat it without a fight......biggest tip to hastings cover your food from the sight of the sky......they are watching......always
Haha I didn't quite have my camera ready as I was enjoying my ice cream!
Well there always watching.........always!!!!!
SQUARK!!!!
I agree
My home town! kinda!
Awesome!! Yeah I remember you were from near there !
If you have been one of ours, you are always one of ours lol You will never forget Hastings and always want to return unless you walk away from the beach, throw a stone with a hole in it over your shoulder and don't look back..... apparently. Don't know, I have never left lol
My family were one of the first in Hastings, we built a lot of the old houses you see in All Saints Street. Hope you had a good day!
Donna-Maria Welsh 😂😂😂😂😂
@@lizbourn4192 ??
@@lizbourn4192 How disgusting, are you incapable of starting a conversation without being a condescending twat? 117 All Saints, The New Moon Inn, The Norfolk, all the houses in Bourne Walk that are no longer there, rebuilt almost every house you see on that road with the families that occupied them. My family are the Moon family, previously the De Mohun family, we are well documented. A favourite family of Matilda and William the Conqueror.
@@lizbourn4192 For your info, we also built the lifeboats on display and manned them and had them taken by the government during the war. You will find my family again, well documented, in the Fishermans museum and any other historical works on Hastings Old Town.
Donna-Maria Welsh
Donna, please accept my apologies. I genuinely thought you were being flip. Many people lay claims as to being the first this or first that and I mistook you for one of those. I expect you know Dee-Day?
As I say, I’m sorry.
We are visiting Hastings for a staycation this summer. So great to see a sneak peek
Ah have a great time - we loved it there!
I've lived in Hastings since I was born (up until 14). I moved out of the town 4 months before this video was uploaded. I can tell from experience that it's a town where you're better off staying at the beach or old town. Because I can tell you from my own experience that if you stay there and go deeper into the town (either the Town Centre or Silverhill or Hollington) you'll quickly see that it isn't a very pleasant place. I used to live in Silverhill and the crime that existed there was exponential. Looks can be deceiving so don't let it fool you.
Of course, I want to be positive so I will say that you definitely caught the good part of Hastings. Even though I've had dodgy experiences with it, it's still a decent place for a day out with old and new friends. Much love
Thanks. I was thinking of moving there, because property is so cheap. Heard a lot of negatives, but looking at the crime stats, it seems quite low. I am from London though, so I suppose it's all relative...
Hastings is the best place to enjoy and it has attractive beach when iwas student East Sussex college Hastings i was excited ♥️
It's a lovely place to visit!
Very nice!
Thanks Jon - glad you liked it!
Love it nice video on holiday there right now!
Thank you!
The food!! Yum!
Beautiful video
cute video, Chloe:)
Nice vid! I'm from Hastings. Living in Asia now but I do miss the old place, esp the pier which is starting to get more like it used to be now, with lots of parties and events going on there.
It's a lovely little town! I liked the pier a lot although the thundery clouds were rolling in throughout the day!
...love to go in
I'm thinking about going there. Is it nice in February and are there trains from London Bridge?
It'd be lovely in Feb, maybe a bit cold but definitely worth a little trip!
Yea you can get the train from London Bridge. Its normally a faster one too.
Once I threw a chip on my friend on Hastings beach and the seagulls realised that I have chips so the seagulls got the whole bag of chips 😕😞😞☹️😂😂 I have to admit it was quite funny 😄
Haha oh dear! That doesn't surprise me at all!
What a good video and now I’m Hastings there’s a Ferris wheel
Ohhh Cute Video 😀 Subscribed And Liked....
Love this
You saying about the seagull same this happened to me, it happens so fast
So funny!
You should visit again there a new pizza place that does aged sourdough bases done by two Italians. Morellis or something like that in george Street. It's authentic good food.
Oh yum - sounds like a reason to come back!
I run the Hastings Card. Would you like one, Chloe?
Hey Chris! I'll have to let you know when I'm coming down to visit again. Sure that would be great!
Hi Chloe. Great stuff. Look forward to your call. Chris
I live in Hastings
Hi Chloe, do youremember the name of the restaurant where you had the calamari in this video? Some Hastings folk don't recognise it. Great video, but you should visit again, all sorts of changes in the Old Town.
Probably whites in George Street.
