Quercus Wood offers a great opportunity to experience the joy of woodland ownership in the most enchanting of surroundings.

An abundance of nature awaits here to be enjoyed; from the sunny glades illuminated by spring bluebells; to the truly gigantic Scots pines and oak that have overseen the forest for centuries.

Quercus is the Latin name for oak trees of which the best known is the English or Pedunculate oak, Quercus robur. The wood is named after the oak tree as there are a number of fine specimens dominating the mature canopy.

A rich variety of mature deciduous trees including beech, birch and ash can also be found within Quercus Wood, interspersed with Scots pine and Douglas fir. The secluded location along a well maintained track and away from human habitation provides excellent cover for more timid bird-life including the tawny owl, European Honey Buzzard and dartford warbler. The two storage containers shown in photo are included.

The woodland is a constantly changing environment throughout the year, from snowdrops emerging under the watery winter light to bluebells and wood anemones in the bright spring sunshine. After summer the fertile autumn ground spawns fungus varieties from shaggy ink caps (Coprinus comatus) to the slipper toadstool (Crepidotus mollis).
