I will try to get the information re the wallet (again a word i am unfamiliar with).

A wallet is a mean by which you access an address and initiate transactions. There are different types of wallers and they operate on different software specifications. You'll need a rough idea of the wallet to be able to import your address, for example some only accept certain address types, so if your mnemonic words are a certain number; 12, 15, 18, 21 or 24, you should know which wallet is best to import it on.

An address basically has a private key and a public key.
• The private key is used to sign transactions, and
• The public key is used to receive as it determines the public address.
• The mnemonic or seed or recovery phrase is a representation of the private keys.

You have the private key and seed phrase which is enough to import an address. Download (from the original website) a compatible wallet, preferably non custodian and follow the instructions to import an existing address for which you already have a seed.
