## Description

Coed y Porthmyn is part of a west facing wider woodland on a beautiful hill near the larger Cloacaenog Forest. On fording a shallow river or walking the footbridge, you are immediately greeted by your woodland access and private parking off the established track A second track disappears into the woods, drawing your eye, and willing you to explore the surrounds. This easily accessed wood encourages you to roam, and discover the smaller spectacles within, from fungi to wildlife. This wood offers a relaxing sanctuary to those that simply seek a readymade refuge, but to those seeking a project, there is opportunity thin smaller conifers, encouraging the understory, adding layers of diversity to his tranquil place. Trees Coed y Porthmyn is predominantly cedar woodland. The trees are mature, well-spaced and truly magnificent. Broadleaf trees including sycamore, beech, ash, oak and holly are also dotted throughout, attaining great height through their competition with the cedars. Emerging natural glades have established themselves through natural thinning (which could be further developed), where the fertile well-draining soils yield a velvety emerald covering of mosses and eager broadleaf saplings. Wildlife From red kites overhead, to wood mice and foxes on the ground, this woodland has a huge variety of wildlife. We have seen evidence of badgers, heard and watched buzzards and seen numerous smaller birds. Dormice are known to be close by. The big trees provide an amazing habitat for bats - spot the cracks that might be home! Features From a newly cleaned track, Coed y Porthmyn has a dedicated space to park a car which immediately gives way to a second well established path that winds into the wood. The wood rises with the track to the north-east boundary which is fenced, progressing towards a secluded pocket, featuring several small glades where broadleaf species have gained a foothold, and where the sun touches the ground, a vivid carpet of green has broken out. This is where the true essence of Coed y Porthmyn is felt. Access, tracks and footpaths The larger wood, Coed Cooper, is accessed via a high-quality footbridge over the small stream. This is next to a vehicle ford over the shallow water, as seen in the pictures. In summer this is easily crossed but in winter a 4x4 might be required. A historic forestry extraction track runs through the woodland, but the needle-strewn forest floor is easily traversed on foot in most directions. There are no public footpaths. Rights and covenants As is the case for all our woodlands, the purchaser will be asked to enter into a covenant which serves to protect the peace and quiet of the woodland.
