Assessor comments
"Spend a delightful day, riding electric trams through beautiful natural scenery"
Overview
Set in Devon’s Axe Valley, Seaton Tramway is a great day out for fans of vintage transport, and nature lovers. Three narrow-gauge heritage trams run between Seaton, Colyford and Colyton, alongside the River Axe estuary, and through two nature reserves. The trams are newly built but modelled on old trams which have been made here since the 1940s.

About the area
Devon sums up all that is best about the British landscape, with its magnificent coastlines, two historic cities, the world-famous Dartmoor National Park and south Devon’s glorious English Riviera. A fashionable and much-loved holiday destination, hiking and cycling in the National Parks is extremely popular among visitors, with a great choice of off-road routes.
