While applying UK visa should I declare that I am visiting Schengen countries?

You should definitely mention your plans to visit France and the Netherlands. Otherwise, you might be issued a single-entry visa, which would prevent you from visiting those countries and subsequently returning to the UK.

In addition, you should in principle be forthcoming about details of your travel plans. Otherwise you might be suspected of being evasive, which will "damage your credibility" and almost certainly result in the application being refused.

As to whether your trip counts as 10 days in the UK or 17, I am pretty sure it's the former, but there won't likely be a difference in your chances of success. They'll want to see that you can afford the entire 17-day trip, for example. As long as you provide your detailed itinerary, there shouldn't be any problem if you answer 17 where they'd rather see 10, or vice versa.
