Description

Dygoed Wood occupies the lower east section of a larger woodland overlooking the Afon Cych about 5 miles south of Newcastle Emlyn. Carmarthen and the A48 dual carriageway (which links with the M4) is 17 miles to the southeast, and Cardigan some 12 miles to the northwest.

The wood has a bright east-facing aspect, looking across grassland to the river beyond. The terrain is generally quite steep aside from an attractive riverside terrace near the entrance and some level ground on the field edge towards the south of the property.

Dygoed Wood supports a wide range of broadleaf species. Above the main track is a generous stand of oak in mixture with birch, beech and occasional young sycamore. Lower down, mature ash dominates with beech and oak scattered through. A shrub layer of hazel, holly, elder and hawthorn overlies blueberry and ferns on higher ground with increasing amounts of blackberry lower down.

Low disturbance and a rich habitat mean there’s plenty of woodland wildlife. Foxes and badgers frequent the forest floor and it appears to be good dormouse habitat as well. Ravens, buzzards and woodpeckers were all noted on our visit alongside the usual woodland songsters like thrushes, tits and chaffinches. The wood comes with fishing rights for two rods on the river below. Whilst casting a fly there you may catch a glimpse of dippers, kingfishers and possibly even an otter.

The upgraded access track gives good vehicular access to the upper edge of the wood.

Dygoed Wood is in a beautiful private location and has significant habitat and conservation interest with a very realistic price tag.

If It Were Mine

Stewarding ancient woodland needs patience. I’d consider a little light thinning and perhaps construct a deck looking out over the valley. I’d also look to improve internal pedestrian access, especially in the lower east side of the property.

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