Iron & Brick

Mouth-watering restaurants, cosy pubs and charming independent shops are all just moments away from this apartment nestled on the famous George Street in Hasting's Old Town. Step out the front door right onto the pretty pedestrianised lane and walk three minutes to the pebbled seafront, stopping for a coffee and a pastry along the way. It's the perfect spot for exploring Hastings – right in the heart of the vibrant city centre, yet the double-glazed windows keep the outside noise to a minimum. Set on the second floor, this apartment has a cool, contemporary vibe. Edison pendant lights hang above the dining table, funky artwork by underground artists Pyky adorns the exposed brick wall and the squishy leather sofa is both comfortable and chic. The kitchen is compact, but it's well-stocked with crockery if you're in the mood for a homecooked meal – though with so many excellent eateries nearby, we bet you'll want to treat yourself to dinner out and about. We love the rainfall shower in the bathroom, and the bed is a cosy place to rest your head and recharge after a long day strolling around town.

Home truths:
*There's no private entrance – the communal stairway is shared with the friendly neighbours who have a cat, so don't be alarmed if you see a furry friend in the hallway
*There are a few cupboards that will be locked for storage purposes
*The windows are double-glazed and do a decent job of blocking out the street noise – that said, you should expect to hear some noise
*This home isn't suitable for children and infants
*You'll be able to self check-in with a lockbox
*The kitchen could be better equipped with basic essentials
*The streets around this area are pedestrianised for most of the day, so parking can be tricky – if you drive, you'll need to park in a paid lot off-site
