Description

Garland Wood is a well established mixed species woodland  in the heart of the Devonshire countryside, not far from Tiverton. Exmoor National Park lies a few miles to the north and the popular coastal towns of Westward Ho! and Croyde are about 20 miles to the west. The woodland is relatively flat, with a slight gradient that runs downhill in a northerly direction.

The woodland is a wonderful mix of mature oak and beech with a smattering of tall Scots pine. The upper canopy is relatively dense and there are only a few natural breaks between the trees. Underneath the canopy you will find a vigorous shrub layer of self-seeded and naturally regenerating hazel, holly and the odd hawthorn growing. Between these, is a lush bed of ferns, wild grasses, and a fine display of bluebells in the spring. Among the undergrowth, if you forage around you will find a variety of mushrooms giving this woodland a truly wild feeling.

A careful observer will notice the nibbled ends to the ground vegetation - signs of the local roe deer population that wander through the woodland. Badger setts have been noted elsewhere in the wider woodland and the animal tracks found throughout Garland Wood are likely used by the badgers. On our visit, squirrels were seen scampering up the beech and oak trees, foraging for nuts to see them through the coming winter. The only thing disrupting the quietness of the wood are the many songbirds flitting through the trees and the occasional squawk of a rook chasing a nosey buzzard overhead.

This beautiful woodland is easily accessed from the main road along the recently upgraded stone track, accessible to 2WD cars year-round, meaning you can enjoy the wood whatever the weather.


If It Were Mine

There are already several varieties of wild mushrooms growing in the wood. To enhance this, I would fell a few trees (which could also fuel the home hearth) around a naturally forming clearing and I would try and ‘plant’ fungal spores in some deadwood, and grow mushrooms for my own consumption. I would set up a little campsite and cook scrumptious food and enjoy the quiet solitude of the woodland.

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