The Christmas House is Open
The Christmas House opened it's doors this weekend: 135 All Saints Street is one of the most complete Tudor houses in
Hastings’ old town. Alastair Hendy, food writer and stylist has carried
out a unique and extensive restoration programme over several years,
taking it back to how it may have looked when first built. This is an
opportunity to experience first hand this magical home at Christmas, lit
by candlelight with log fires burning, and decorated with traditional
Christmas decorations.
This is also the home of Home Store Hastings’ fairytale, The Elves & The Baker and our Christmas recipes, all beautifully illustrated by photography and words in our Christmas House storybook, a copy of which will be given to each party that visit the house. All are welcome, and families with children will be encouraged to live the magic by having the story read to them by the open fire, while sat in the very house where the fairytale is set.
Come and see, and join us for a warming glass of spiced wine – you will be filled with wonder.

(this last one was today's lunch - pickled pears and French ham, completely delish).

We are in the depths of Hastings Old town week, and now, as tradition dictates, Alastair Hendy opens his Tudor house to the public.
135 All Saints Street, a16th
century merchant’s house and one of the most complete Tudor houses in the old
town. As previous visitors will
know, it has undergone a unique and extensive renovation programme over the
past six years. It has been taken back to how it may have looked when first built, with major structural repairs throughout, sympathetic restoration of
every surface and internal fixture - yet keeping the evolution of the house
intact. This is an opportunity to experience first hand this magical time
capsule, and to pick up a few tips on sensitive restoration and some quirky
interior design solutions.
