Lee Meadow is a truly magical place. With views out to sea, a natural swimming pond and an array of newly planted trees and wildflowers it offers an idyllic retreat from one's everyday life. Located just a short distance from the charming Lee Bay near the village of Lincombe in North Devon, the elevated position and topography of the land allows for spectacular views of the sea. The design and position of the pond, which is surrounded by beautifully landscaped banks, creates an infinity-type pond where the water, sky and sea beyond fuse into an expanse of blue. A place to cool off and be close to nature in the warm summer months.

The land is accessed via a stoned track from Dibbons Lane enabling year round vehicular access. The track winds its way through a couple of hedgerows before the entrance to Lee Bay appears on your left hand side, marked by a ride stop and name plate. Eucalyptus and other newly planted trees frame the entrance. From here, a private internal stone track takes you down to a significant area of hardstanding suitable for a number of vehicles. Immediately below this, a second pad of harstanding offers a more secluded spot. Gorse bushes on the right hand side offer a flash of yellow brilliance as well as privacy. It is from here that the best sea views can be enjoyed.

The pond is located just below, the azure water contrasting with the green grass which surrounds it. Lined with bentonite clay, the pond holds water the year round and has a developing bed of plants and reeds around its perimeter, including some fabulous Gunnera plants which explode into life come the summer. Rustic stones form steps down in the water. A number of willow trees have been planted on the bank surrounding the pond along with a plethora of wildflowers which bring the land to life in the summer. A copse of silver birch trees have been planted just below the bank.

The main section of the meadow, which includes the hardstanding and the pond, is seperated from a smaller lower section by a Devon bank which has been planted with a mixture of native hedgerow species inclduing Hawthorn, Dogwood and Crabapple. A field gate in the bank allows for access between the two sections. Beyond the gate, in the lower section, a bank of Eucalyptus trees planted in the last couple of years are flourishing; their bright red leaves offering a pleasing contrast to the green grass. A fast growing species, the group of Eucalyptus trees will soon offer a lovely frame to the southern edge of the meadow. Travelling west in this lower section, an area of meadow has been left untouched to rewild naturally, handing over the reigns to nature to take its course.

Heading back over the bank to the main section, a number of trees have been planted on the open land which hold the promise of future woodland to come on the land. A mixture of native broadleaved species have been planted in one cluster, inclduing Oak, Rowan, Hornbeam, Beech and Horse Chestnut. Further up and closer to the entrance, a bank of Scots Pine have been planted which have settled in fantastically. A new hedgerow has also been planted along the northern boundary, which is marked by a line of field stakes. Extensive planting has taken place on the neighbouring parcel of land to the north which will work synergistically with the trees on Lee Meadow.

Despite the planting that has already taken place, there is still plenty of open ground for those who wish to undertake further planting on the site to enhance what is already in place. The meadow would be of significant appeal to anyone with conservation interests who is looking for a parcel of land to enjoy with friends and family. The rare combination of a coastal location, swimming pond and a diverse mix of flora makes Lee Meadow unique.

The purchasers of the meadow will be asked to enter into a covenant to ensure the quiet and peaceful enjoyment of adjoining woodlands and meadows.
