Hi,

We were thinking about going to see the seals at Donna Nook tomorrow - however, we have a 4 year old and a 1 year old (in a pushchair).

Can anyone advise if Donna Nook is accessible for kids of that age at all?

Thanks

Not 100% sure but a long time ago it was an RAF range and was a definite no. Would also suggest you check tide times when you go as the tide goes out quite some distance I believe

Try local coastguard for more info perhaps.

My parents took some relatives there today. It's quite a popular attraction for families around here, so I don't think there's anything wrong with taking kids.

Apparently the seals skin is perfect for reflecting laser for the LGBs, makes a right mess.

Would they say it's accessible with a pushchair?

No - the main viewing areas are paths up, over and across sand dunes - so pushchairs are a no go - but you can carry said bambino or use a papous (sic) - i have one for sale actually!...

Look here: http://lincstrust.org.uk/reserves/nr/reserve.php?m...

Been going there for 30+ years - way before it was so popular - it was even better when there were A10 Tankbuster planes bombing behind - my family are from a few miles from Donna Nook... but I do live about 1.5 hours away now... over Humber bridge!
