2.3 The authors of the report seem surprised by 'current signs that traditional seaside tourism is in fact experiencing something of a revival in Hastings'. This supports the absence of worthwhile promotion of the region to holidaymakers. Poor road and rail links will continue to mean that Hastings is isolated from traditional 'commercial opportunities and markets of London for rapid recovery'. Britain's economic woes and the growth of the 'staycation' has not been exploited.

Paragraphs 2.3 and 2.39
Bourne Leisure supports the acknowledgement at paragraph 2.3 of the Hastings Planning Strategy that tourism will continue to be an important part of the Hastings economy, and likewise endorses paragraph 2.39's comment that "the tourism strategy is now based around attracting more staying visitors back to the town and encouraging the retention and development of good quality tourism accommodation combined with an active programme of arts and cultural events and festivals".
Bourne Leisure considers that both statements are sound (effective) and reflect the Borough's Tourism Strategy.
