Home to the internationally renowned Coastal Currents Arts Festival, and a recently opened University Centre, the town is fast becoming a cosmopolitan hive of creative activity that promises to rival both Brighton and London for sheer audacity. The winding twittens of its Old Town and its three miles of unspoilt beaches are key locations in the smash hit ITV1 drama series 'Foyle's War'.
The seafront is now home to several astounding lighting installations including the mysterious marine monolith 'Stream' and the iconic 'Sticks of Rock'. The 660 acre Hastings Country Park offers one of the United Kingdom's most exhilarating clifftop panoramas together with a host of unique and rare wildlife species. This unique combination of the rural, the coastal and the urban, mean that Hastings & St Leonards is inspiration itself. |
