    The location couldn't be better, right in the middle of Hastings old town, just 2 minutes' walk from shops and bars. The property is quite something, a real throwback to the 1970s, but in a delightful way!

The Retro Retreat is a purpose built apartment on the east wing of Norton Villa in Hastings. The place has been decorated and furnished with a nod to our favourite era of the 70s yet with all mod cons. A parking space,a rare find indeed is available on site.
We are a couple that enjoy travelling a lot. We have decorated the 'Retro' and the space with the basics that we would love to find on one of our weekends away but given the space an alternative feel to your basic weekend away.
Hastings old town is great with always something going on and ours is as near to the centre of the events as you are liable to find. From festivals to the beach to country walks to probably one of the best music scenes in the south east,Hastings really does have it all for those precious few days away.
