The loudest sound you will hear when you visit will be the birdsong. Approached through a narrow lane between high Devon banks, Poet's Wood is a gently sloping mature oak woodland complimented with beech, silver birch, hazel and holly under the oak canopy.
Tucked away in the heart of the wood is a very useful metal shed, this is included in the sale and is a welcome shelter when at work in the wood.
As you would expect from a semi-natural ancient woodland there are many areas of spring wildflowers including violets, bluebells, red campion, primrose and thyme-leaved sandwort. There is a small stream that can be vigorous in winter but gently gurgles through the trees in summer and there are a number of areas suitable for making ponds. Badgers, owls and other wildlife are well established and the wood is surrounded by other woodland on two sides, a quiet, wooded lane on one side and by farmland on the other.
For lovers of literature as well as lovers of woodland, Poet's Wood is the perfect twenty first century escape. At five acres it is big enough to be away from the world, yet small enough to manage easily. Oaks, seclusion, a stream and wildflowers; what more could one desire.
There is a covenant on the wood: "The transferee will not use the property nor permit the Property to be used for motor cross, motorcycle scrambling or other comparable activity or sport."

Please note, none of these woods are suitable for residential development, other uses such as summer camping may well be suitable.
Viewing: You are welcome to visit this wood by yourself, but please ensure that you have a copy of these sales details with you - many of our woodlands do not have mobile phone reception or internet access so we recommend either printing the details or downloading them to your phone/tablet/laptop. Please take care when viewing as the great outdoors can contain unexpected hazards and woodlands are no exception.
