A highly attractive mixed woodland comprising fast yielding conifers, a number of specimen trees and diverse broadleaves. Established on fertile and productive soils. Potential for chalets/leisure development. Sporting rights included, with 3 productive flight ponds. Hermit’s cave/ice house.
Dunmore Wood once formed part of Dunmore Park Estate and sits in a Designed Landscape. The Ruined Dunmore Park Manor is clearly visible to the east of the access road. The wood consists of 72.41 hectares in total, 14.20 hectares of which are made
up of high-yielding Sitka spruce planted in 2011. Some 18.51 hectares of Sitka spruce was felled in 2017 and the land has been left to naturally regenerate with mostly birch. An incoming purchaser could clear the regen to restock this area, subject to discussions with Scottish Forestry. The property has an impressive record of producing extremely fast growing crops.
The remaining 39.70 hectares create a most attractive mixed woodland of great variation, including large Douglas fir, an impressive stand of mature Scots pine, ancient yew, Monkey Puzzle, larch and mixed broadleaves, a number of which are specimen trees. In addition, the property has 3 ponds and a hermit’s cave/ ice house, which adds to the overall beauty and diversity of the property.
