Selling woodland in Devon? This page is for buyers. See how many buyers match your property.

Why buy woodland in Devon

Devon is 13% woodland, close to the 11% England average. That is about 84,031 hectares of trees in all. Woods sell in anything from a few acres to a whole estate, so tell us the size and the use you have in mind and we match on that.

Dartmoor National Park, Exmoor National Park, and 5 National Landscapes including Blackdown Hills and East Devon protect a large part of Devon. Woods inside a protected landscape are managed under the same felling licence rules as anywhere else, and ancient woodland has extra protection wherever it is, so check the Ancient Woodland Inventory before you offer.

Felling is licensed by the Forestry Commission, not the council, but 10 councils in Devon decide on anything you build in a wood and on Tree Preservation Orders, so a quick call to the planning department before you offer is worth it. Our guides cover the rest.
