Seaton Valley Countryside Park

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Seaton Valley Countryside Park was opened in 1998, and is the newest of Cornwall's four Country Parks.

The Park offers a flat 2km track which winds its way through a valley bottom with ponds, woodlands, picnic areas and a beach at the end. It is particularly good for the very young. It also offers a longer track (approx 5km), through woodland, to the village of Hessenford.

Formerly a derelict caravan park, Seaton Valley Countryside Park has been owned and managed by Caradon District Council since 1995, and formally opened in 1998. It covers over 50 hectares, including a sensory garden, ponds, cycleways and footpaths, with disabled access on the main footpath and to the garden.

In 2005, the Park became the first one in Cornwall to win a Green Flag Award.
