A taste of history for Gatwick Airport car hire customers

Those using Gatwick Airport car hire in September do not have far to travel to enjoy a bit of history and culinary excellence.

You and your family can head down to the south coast where the town of Hastings hosts its annual Seafood and Wine Festival on September 18th and 19th.

This will offer a chance to sample lots of regional wine and food, with locally-caught fish and crustaceans offering plenty of chances to tickle the tastebuds.

In addition to this, there is live music and entertainment to help stoke the festival atmosphere.

Visitors to Hastings can also pop over to the nearby village of Battle, where the site of the 1066 Battle of Hastings was fought, the last successful full-scale invasion of Britain.

Getting to Hastings from Gatwick is a short and simple trip, which begins by heading up the M23 northwards to the M25 London orbital motorway.

Having joined the M25 at junction 8, head east to Junction 5 and take the turning for the A21 signposted for Sevenoaks and Hastings, which takes you all the way down to your destination.
