Vellum Wood, Buckinghamshire - About 3 ½ acres, £49,000
As you enter the woodland onto a private ride there is a coppice and hedge row to your right which provides an excellent barrier from the lane. To your left the woodland extends to the next ride and this section is split into two compartments separated by an old fence. The first section consists of oaks and ash with a good sprinkling of hazel coppice and blackthorn. This mixture is perfect for anyone interested in green crafts. The second section of woodland is filled with soft wood, pine and spruce which are now past thicket stage and will mature into a useful timber resource over the next decades.
A small glade has been made 50 metres down the private ride and gives owners a perfect place to set up camp and have a base from which you can explore the wood. The woodland is very thick in parts and it is quickly possible to disappear from sight into its folds of dense cover.
More glades could be created throughout the woodland and its flat nature make it perfect for camping. Three sides of the woodland are bordered by other areas of private woodland ensuring privacy and seclusion. Vellum Wood forms part of a larger woodland area that is gated and has no public footpaths. Excellent access suitable for most vehicles and conveniently located being only a few miles from the thriving town of Newport Pagnell and the M1 make Vellum Wood an ideal retreat.
Particulars and plans were prepared by our local manager, Matt Marples.
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.

Directions
From the M1, exit at junction 14 and head north towards Newport Pagnell on the A509. Where this road meets the west-east running A422, continue straight over to pick up the B526 which will take you through Newport Pagnell and on past Tyringham into Gayhurst.
North of Gayhurst take the turning towards Tathall End and Hanslope. This turning is on the left on a bend.
After a short distance you will see the wooden access gate on your left which leads to the woodland. (Just pass the gate is the "Woodlands for sale" sign and then Buntsy Farm on your right hand side).
Please park near to, but not in front of the gate and use the temporary stile to access the woodland. (Please be careful as this is only a temporary structure.)
The wood entrance is 20 metres on the right of the ride.
