🇬🇧 This Might Be the UK's Most Underrated Coastal Gem! 😍

📌 Hastings, East Sussex PLEASE give this town at least 2 days—I went in skeptical and left absolutely smitten! This unassuming harbor town has it all: ✨ Britain’s steepest funicular (a wooden Victorian time capsule!) ✨ Crisscrossing alleys stacked like Jenga blocks ✨ Moody old pubs where smugglers once plotted ✨ Antique dens and indie coffee shops oozing charm 🚂 Getting There 🚆 From London: Direct trains from London Bridge or Charing Cross (1.5-2hrs, frequent service). 💡 Pro tip: NEVER pay full price—get a Railcard for 1/3 off! (StudentHacks) 🌟 Must-Do List ✅ Ride the cliff railway (jaw-dropping views!) ✅ Get lost in Old Town’s higgledy-piggledy streets (so many photogenic shops!) ✅ Hastings Contemporary (quirky art with sea views) ✅ Fishermen’s Museum (free + full of salty tales) ✅ Shipwreck Museum (treasures from the deep) ✅ Hastings Castle ruins (William the Conqueror vibes) 📸 Proof that magic exists just 2 hours from London. #HiddenUK #HastingsLove #CoastalEscape #LondonDayTrips #TravelDontTour ⚓🌊
