Description

VERY RARE OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE 11.2 ACRES OF SLOPING WOODLAND IN COOMBE VALLEY, MORWENSTOW.

ONCE OWNED BY THE WELL KNOWN LOCAL FAMILIES THE TYNNE'S AND THE TAPE'S, THIS PARCEL OF WOODLAND NESTLES BETWEEN EASTAWAY WOOD AND HOLLYGROVE WOOD.

AGENTS NOTE
The woodland comes with benefit of a wayleaf from Western Power of £55 per annum. There are no public footpaths through the wood.

The deed land plan (which can be seen within the brochure or can be emailed upon request) clearly shows a right of access at this point along the footpath - but the bridge/access over the river at this point has long since disappeared. There is currently no easy access to Elldown Woods and if you wanted to visit, this would be entirely at your own risk.
Directions
From Stibb, proceed down the hill towards Coombe Valley. Go over the bridge and turn right and drive through the ford. As you drive around the corner and up the hill, there is a small layby you can park in, as the entrance to the footpath is very close by.
What3words - hunches.proclaims.hotspots - this reference will get you close to the beginning of the public footpath that leads to Elldown Woods.
What3words - lifeboats.energy.reward - will get you near to the point of the river, close to Elldown Wood.
