Hiking

Holywell Dene is a tree-lined valley through which the Seaton Burn flows to Seaton Sluice. It’s a fantastic walk through the woods down to the coast, and the footbridges that criss-cross the river let you admire the wildlife from every angle.

Hiking

This is agreat little place to visit. Some trees have collapsed over the river so you can actually walk over them and get some perfect views of the stream. There are also benches for picnics and the bird feeders are all over the place so you can see some beautiful wild life.
