woodland for sale

Exact Location, viewing Instructions and further details can be found in our brochure below.The description and photos are in respect of both lot 2 and lot 3 which are listed separately. A most attractive standalone wood of mixed broadleaves and production-phase conifers.Tynton Wood lies on gentle north-facing slopes overlooking a mosaic of woodland and farmland in rural Carmarthenshire. This very tranquil location is only 10 minutes’ drive from the A48 dual carriageway. The west end of the M4 is four miles further on, enabling ready access from Swansea, Cardiff and beyond.A number of coupes were planted with Norway spruce by the vendor in the 1990s. These trees are now in production phase, the first thinning having occurred about 8 years ago. The retained stems are growing well and are of good form with the promise of some quality lumber. Within the spruce are some small attractive stands of noble fir, their slightly blue foliage providing an attractive contrast to the high summer greenery. Around and between are a variety of broadleaves including willow, birch, hazel and oak plus the occasional ash and beech.The wood is accessed via a steep stoned track, better suited to 4WD vehicles. This soon levels out to a network of tracks and rides that access most parts of the wood, allowing easy management.The local birdlife appreciates the diverse habitats within Tynton. We saw buzzards and kites during our visit and heard the call of a green woodpecker, while a good variety of smaller woodland birds were also seen including goldfinch.The wood is offered for sale as a whole or in two lots. Please note, lot 3 will not be sold in advance of lot 2. For reference, lot 1 has already sold and some of the marketing photos may be of the area already sold.Our Forester'sThoughtsAlastair says..."Tynton delightfully combines silvicultural and amenity opportunities.Further thinning of the spruce will produce some quality logs and should also result in some sizeable final crop stems in this sheltered location.Opportunities for recreation are self-evident. Several small glades provide excellent locations for family picnics and overnight camping. A forester’s store would be a useful addition.Finally I’d want to lay more stone on the existing tracks to ensure year-round vehicular access to the more remote parts of the wood."Please remember some management operations require approval and/or a licence.
