Description

Logie Wood lies on the south side of a private loch in an undisturbed location amidst gently undulating countryside in northeast Aberdeenshire. The fishing harbours of Fraserburgh and Peterhead are both about 10 miles distant and there are a number of attractive coastal villages and beaches close by. Aberdeen is a 45-minute drive to the south. 

The outstanding feature of this woodland is the three-acre loch that it fronts, part of which is within the boundary of Logie Wood. This beautiful body of water attracts a variety of birds, from geese and ducks to swallows and songsters. There is a generous area of maintained grass by the waterside which provides a variety of attractive locations for camping and quiet recreation.

To the east of the loch there is a stand of maturing lodgepole pine which was planted in the late 1990s, while to the south there is a more open area with scattered mature conifers (mostly spruce).

The wood is served by a hard track navigable by 2WD vehicles. The adjacent public road is an approved timber haulage route giving good linkage to timber markets.

With loch frontage, open water, unstocked areas and maturing pine, Logie offers a wide variety of habitats and an equally wide variety of opportunities.

Safety Note. Please take extra care when viewing Logie, especially with regard to open water and any windblown trees.


If It Were Mine

Logie has real amenity and conservation credentials with the added potential of some angling. The accessible loch-side area is hard to beat as a place for quiet recreation and camping.

In the short term I would look at restocking some of the open areas south of the loch with native broadleaves. In the longer term I would want to progressively harvest the pine and then diversify the subsequent rotation with a range of trees and shrubs.

Please remember some management operations require approval and/or a licence.
