We enjoyed a short 1.5 mile winter walk around the grounds of National Trust Seaton Delaval Hall today.
Dogs on leads are welcome in the grounds and gardens here and there is also a dog friendly area inside the Brewhouse Cafe or takeaway / outdoor seating.
I love the grounds here as they are pretty varied - there are mirror cubes hidden in the woods, little water features, more formal gardens, picturesque views and stunning trees.
We spotted a Robin and a Pheasant on our walk today and it was SO nice to see the first signs of spring with spring bulbs peeking through the herbaceous borders.
Seaton Delaval Hall is also home to the UK's largest colony of Pipistrelle Bats 🦇
If you're visiting without a dog / someone doesn't mind waiting outside with them, there's a fantastic playground and the hall/house is worth a look around with a giant mirror ball, spooky basement, upside down room, indoor theatre and more.
We will be back in spring/summer to enjoy the rhododendrons and laburnum arch 🌸
