Welcome to House of Travel Jenny Nilsson


At House of Travel Jenny Nilsson we believe that Travel enriches people’s lives – providing a unique opportunity to see, to experience and to learn.

The success of our business in Hastings has been based on one simple premise - our ability to transform normal holiday ideas into something quite exceptional.

Our experience in the travel business over the past 18 years allows us to add those inspirational tips, ideas and ‘off the beaten track’ experiences that in less experienced hands would not produce such exciting results.

This ability to ‘make a difference’ for our customers is what drives us and overwhelmingly our feedback tells us we've got it right.

If you would like to work with us in making sure your holiday is as good as it can possibly be, please pop in and have a chat with one of us about your holiday plans.

    4 wheels or 2? Here's one of the best destinations to explore using a scooter!

    When you think Italy you probably think Ferrari. Well, we think you should choose... Vespa! Italy is home to one of the most historically beautiful countries and monuments in the world. Flying by in your Ferrari won't let you enjoy the views. Slow down and take it in with a 2-wheeled wonder. The urban streets filled with culture and the Italian countryside, either of which are perfectly suited for the iconic moped and is definitely a must-do on your bucket list.
