Description
This is a small woodland based right in the heart of Eryri, Snowdonia. The land extends to approximately 2 acres of mixed broadleaf and conifer woodland which has been sporadically managed over the years. Trees on Coed Sychnant include Rowan, Ash, Larch, Willow and Oak.
The woodland is a mix of dry and wetland throughout the year. The land benefits from a stock fence external boundary. There is a small pull in area suitable for a car, or 4x4 vehicle. This is currently secured with a lock, a key will be given to owners upon purchase.
Trees
This diverse piece of land features a mix of 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
Sychnant and the surrounding area is a typical Welsh upland countryside, there is a diverse amount of birdlife including Buzzards and Red Kites. Within the woodland there are many smaller birds including black birds and sparrows.
Larger animals include various small mamals such as mice and shrews. The small water courses could be developed into wonderful water habitats.
With some considered management the woodland could become a haven for a much wider bio diversity.
Features
Coed Sychnant is a mostly flat woodland.
To the north of the gate/parking area there is a small rise, to the south everything is prediminantly flat.
It has one main small water course running through it, but also has other small areas of wetland. There are some mature trees and a lot of re-generation.
There is a (very quiet) public footpath which runs through the woodland. In practice most people use the track outside the woodland.
Access, tracks and footpaths
Access to the land is via a good quality stone track which enables year round access to the land. A field gate enables access from the track into the wood. A public footpath runs though the land from the north to south.
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.
