Description
The woodland is towards the top of a hill in between the ranges of the Rhinogydd, Moelwyn and Arenig mountains.
It's a quiet spot close to the Tomen y Mur Roman ampitheatre as well as the long distance (160m) Sarn Helen roman road.
Despite it's rural location, small shops and pubs in Trawsfynydd create a small community nearby, as well as easy access to Bala, Blaenau Ffestiniog and Porthmadog if you want slightly larger towns.
Trees
This diverse piece of land features a mix of well spaced broadleaf and conifer trees, such as Rowan, Ash, Larch, Willow, and Oak, showcasing the rich natural variety within its borders. The woodland has seen occasional management over time, which adds to its natural charm and ecological value.
Wildlife
Coed Lleu sits right in the heart of classic Welsh upland countryside, and it's buzzing with life! You'll often spot Buzzards and Red Kites soaring overhead, and within the woods themselves, there are plenty of smaller birds like blackbirds and sparrows flitting about.
Down on the ground, you've got all sorts of small mammals scurrying around, like mice and shrews. Plus, those little streams winding through the property? They could easily be turned into amazing water habitats, perfect for all sorts of creatures.
With a bit of careful planning and effort, this woodland could really become a fantastic haven for an even wider variety of wildlife.
Features
The woodland is predominantly flat with some open grassland spaces. The mature, and well spaced mix of trees makes moving around the woodland generally easy.
Small streams and drainages move water around the site, and in general leave the ground well drained.
The location in the centre of Eryri (Snowdonia) is enviable for any woodland, this location gives expansive views.
Access, tracks and footpaths
Coed Lleu purchasers will access via a gate into a car parking space. This is easily achievable with a normal family car.
*** (We ask for visiting purposes please access via the public footpath on the southern boundary, see map and directions).
There is a very quiet public footpath which weaves through the wood from the south to the north. There are no other public footpaths within the woodland.
Rights and covenants
As is the case for all our woodlands, the purchaser will be asked to enter into a covenant which serves to protect the peace and quiet of the woodland.

After 250m (850ft) after a layby on your left, there is a white house. Turn left onto a small road which passes underneath a bridge (beware the 9ft height restriction*).
From the south head for Dolgellau, and then Trawsfynydd. Pass Trawsfynydd, then 4.5km (2.8 miles) on the right just between two laybys, there is a white house (it is opposite a green highway sign). Turn right here, under the railway bridge (beware the 9ft height restriction*).Once you’ve taken this turn under the bridge, follow the road for 1600m (1 mile). Access for purchasers is off a small track that leads into the woodlands. The Woodlands are on the right hand side of the track.
FOR VIEWING PLEASE NOTE:
For visiting we ask that you park at 52.932205, -3.922575, https://maps.app.goo.gl/pTQxcHo1PMyMJVxg6
and walk into the woodland via the style by the large 'Woodlands For Sale' sign. See the photos and wood maps for more details.

This arrangement is in place as the farm beyond the woodland is private, and turning in the farmyard (the only turning) IS NOT PERMITTED.

It is an unmarked turning, next to a pylon, there is a red triangular sign warning of a height restriction in 2 ½ miles. This is located at https://maps.app.goo.gl/h44K436SedmZdiTo8. Once on this road, follow it for 600m then bear right. Follow this track for a further 2km. The woodland is next to the tall radio mast.
