Seaton Sluice & The Links: Delaval Discoveries Wider Estate Walks
Join us for our regular wider estate walks to discover more about the Delavals and their local interests. Take in delightful views across the landscape and find out more about the area's history.
Explore the centuries of history in and around Seaton Sluice and the road towards Blyth on this circular trail. Seaton Delaval was granted to the Delaval family in the 11th century and the earliest record of a building here is a defensive 'tower'. Discover how for more than 900 years, the family has played its part in protecting the area from civil conflicts, wars against the French and attacks during the First and Second World Wars. Walk is approximately 5 miles/ around 3.5 miles, with regular stops along the way.
Please note:
- Please meet at Visitor Welcome in the main visitor car park.
- Please wear weather-appropriate, outdoor footwear. Heels are not recommended for this uneven and often muddy terrain. Paths can become waterlogged in places; waterproofs recommended in wet weather.
- This walk includes steps, uneven terrain and stiles and is therefore unsuitable for those requiring access support.
- Recommended age 10+
- This walk takes in farmland where livestock grazes. Unfortunately we are unable to accommodate any dogs, including access dogs.
- Tickets are for wider estate walk only and do not provide admission into Seaton Delaval Hall.
