Redstone Wood, Devon - About 4 ⅓ acres, £29,000
Very few places are in reality 'miles from anywere', but you certainly have that sensation when you arrive at Redstone Wood having travelled along the quiet parish roads and lanes so typical of Devon.
Surrounded on all sides by farmland as far as the eye can see, this is a very tranquil spot with little to disturb the resident bird and animal life.
The young conifers (Sitka spruce and Douglas fir) are becoming well established and are quite dense, creating sheltered spaces and contrasting open areas. The extreme eastern corner of the woodland in particular could easily become a favoured spot for just sitting and taking in all that is around you.
All along the western edge of the woodland is a broad grassy area where red deer graze with confidence, knowing that there is nothing much going to bother them.
The tall, mature hedges which surround the wood give it shelter on three sides and the land slopes down gently from south-east to north-west, offering fantastic views out over the countryside, whatever the time of year.
Being quite compact and with well-established boundaries, this could be the perfect wood for a family who want to spend most of what time they have simply enjoying their woodland rather than on its maintenance.
The purchasers of the woodland will be asked to enter into a covenant to ensure the quiet and peaceful enjoyment of adjoining woodlands and meadows.
- Price: £29,000 Freehold
- Location: Germansweek, Devon

Leave the A30 dual carriageway at the Broadwoodwidger exit. If travelling from the west turn left from the slip road; if travelling from the east, turn right.
Follow the road up the hill towards Roadford Lake for 1.5 miles. On a left-hand bend, by two radio masts, turn right, signposted to Bratton Clovelly.
Follow this road for 2.5 miles to a T-junction, directly opposite the Clovelly Inn.
Turn left and follow the road for 0.7 miles, then take the turning to the left, signposted to Germansweek.
Follow this road for 1 mile then turn left, signposted to Blagrove.
After about a quarter of a mile Blagrove Farm is on the right and just after this you will see a gate on the left, with a 'woodlands for sale' board on it.
Park by the gate. Go over the gate and follow the track for about 100 yards to a break in the hedge on the left. Go though this gap and Redstone Wood is to the right of the broad grassy area which is in front of you.
