Summer is Coming

In just a week's time it's Hasting's famous Jack in the Green festival. The Sun is coming out to play rather regularly and the locals are getting ready for some fun. See some great JING shots by Melita Dennett. Our Experience of Hastings in Spring has been varied weather wise, it always looks beautiful though. Images below are from March to April 2013.












Garden Make Over

This week we took on Seagate's patio garden. It's a part of the cottage we have wanted to tackle for some time now and so it feels hugely satisfying to get it done and catch some springtime rays while we were at it! here are the before and after shots.

Hastings Country Park Nature Reserve




Theres' a breathtaking walk on our doorstep, you turn left out of Seagate Cottage and then right up Tackle-way rd and here is the foot of Hastings Country Park Nature Reserve via East Hill. This expanse stands tall, overlooking the sea and hugging the old town. An awesome place to walk the dog and or the kids, pick nick or just get a stunning view. If the steps prove too much for you there is a great cliff funicular which you can catch by the seafront.
