Various broadleaf species here; Mature oak, beech, birch and quite a variety of young growth; holly, hazel, alder, hawthorn and some blackthorn forming various thickets around the edges.

The eastern boundary has some yew and various conifer growing amongst the boulders, along with holly and other broadleaf.

The neighbouring woodlands Harper's Wood and Hornbeam Wood have a SSSI designation which means they are a Site of Special Scientific Interest. This designation does not extend to Kymin Wood which means that there are no restrictions on activities you may want to carry out in Kymin Wood, but the woodland obviously benefits from the protection of what are either rare, endangered or characteristic species, habitats or natural features in the neighbouring woodlands. There is monitoring of dormice in the SSSI and the habitat in Kymin Wood is favourable to dormice so there is always the possibility they may have migrated!

The mixed habitats of Kymin Wood are a great magnet for wildlife. The clear area to the south western section, open to sunlight which encourages wildflowers and ground flora attracting insects and butterflies, along with tree cover of mixed ages and species encircling it provide good cover and food opportunities for many species of wildlife, mammal and bird.

Tucked away and private.

Set high on the Kymin hill top with lovely views out north, west and south.

Excellent vehicular access to the woodland.

Direct access to Offa's Dyke Path.

Nice combination of open land surrounded by mature broadleaf standards with scrubby understory, and some very attractive stone formations and an old stone wall.

Direct access from the shared parking area which is located just off the very quiet country road, secured by a locked gate.

A public footpath runs from the gate (via a stile) and continues south along the dividing boundary of the two neighbouring woodlands to the south, but does not pass through Kymin Wood itself.

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.

Opportunity to restore the clearing to grass or meadowland or alternatively to increase the wooded areas with more tree planting. Nearby Pentwyn Farm has some of the best examples of unimproved flower-rich meadow grassland, well worth a visit in spring and summer months.

The close proximity of Offa's Dyke Path offers 177 miles of fantastic walking along Wales' border with England, through stunning landscape.

With the River Wye so close, there are many water based activities on offer from canoeing to gorge scrambling if the peace of Kymin Wood becomes too much.

Approximately a quarter of a mile from the woodland, as the crow flies, is The Kymin National Trust, a Georgian roundhouse and Naval Temple in honour of Nelson and the British Navy's battles of the late 18thC, reachable via Offa's Dyke Footpath which runs along the outside of the eastern boundary of the woodland. Built by a group of bon viveurs in the late 18th C as a picnic spot, it still delivers for beauty, views and atmosphere!

Monmouth, sited at the meeting of the Wye and the Monnow (hence Mon...mouth) is a pretty market town with the ruins of its castle, birth place of Henry V, tucked away in a now quiet corner of the town, and many great independent shops, good restaurants and cafes.
