Secluded Semi-Ancient Woodland Near Bampton, Devon
Tucked away in a peaceful valley just ten minutes from Bampton, this enchanting semi-ancient broadleaf woodland offers a rare chance to become the next custodian of a truly special landscape within the beautiful Exe Valley.
For the past nine years, the current owners and their family have lovingly cared for this woodland - not just as a place of natural beauty, but as a cherished retreat where generations have created their own ‘Enid Blyton’ moments. Long summer days have been spent camping beneath the oaks, swimming in the river’s plunge pool, and building dens among the beeches and hazels. The woodland has been a place of simple adventure and quiet magic, shared with visiting deer and the gentle rhythm of nature.
The owners have taken pride in being thoughtful stewards of the land, preserving its ecological richness and ensuring that its semi-ancient character continues to thrive. The woodland is home to an exceptional mix of mature oak, beech, birch, hazel, and rowan trees, supporting a vibrant array of flora and fauna. A tributary of the River Exe meanders through the valley, with coppiced stream frontage and trout fishing rights included in the title - perfect for wild swimming and moments of riverside reflection.
There are natural clearings ideal for tents, fireside gatherings, and outdoor cooking, with discreet vehicular access that allows easy arrival while keeping the woodland’s sense of seclusion intact.
Now, the owners hope to pass this much-loved haven to someone who will treasure it as they have - someone who will continue its gentle guardianship and find joy in its simple, timeless pleasures.
The woodland lies between the welcoming villages of Stoodleigh and Oakford, just 3 miles from Bampton and around 8 miles from Tiverton. Exmoor National Park, with its deep wooded valleys and sweeping moorland, lies only a few miles to the north - completing a setting of rare and enduring beauty.
Right of Way: A public footpath crosses the north/western boundary of the woodland, and there is a vehicular right of way along the access track for approximately half a mile leading to the woodland.
