General Sir Charles Hastings, 1st Baronet, GCH (12 March 1752 – September 1823) was a British Army officer.

Hastings had an ancestral seat at Willesley from his marriage and a house in Harley Street in Middlesex.

Lady Hastings passed her life in seclusion and near blindness at their ancestral home.

In 1798, he transferred to the 61st Foot as lieutenant-colonel and soon afterwards was promoted brevet colonel and major-general on the same day.

His son Frank Abney Hastings fought at the Battle of Trafalgar and died at Zante.
