Description
** SALE BY AUCTION - 29 May 2025 - Timed Online Auction **
Craigview wood is located in prime position with level ground to the side of broadleaf woodland. Located around 3 miles west of Castle Douglas. The main A75 trunk route is just five minutes to the south giving easy access to Galloway and Carlisle. The wood has been planted with Sitka Spruce conifers around fifteen years ago. These have now become well established. To the north west there are wonderful panoramic views of the Galloway Hills. The site attracts a wide range of wildlife including red and roe deer, badgers, foxes and stoats. Kites, sparrow-hawks and buzzards are also resident along with a variety of songster and moorland birds. Ospreys can be viewed at nearby RSPB Nature Reserve. A red Kite feeding station is located a short distance away facilitating frequent sightings. Access to the site is via a right of way across a neighbouring field and through the surounding woodland. Rights and covenants The sporting rights are owned and included in the sale. A shared maintenance clause covers all shared rights of way with liability according to use. A covenant is in place over the land: a) that the Property shall not be used in such a way as to create a nuisance to the neighbouring owners including the Transferors and specifically the Transferees shall not: (i) use the Property for any sort of racing whether with motorcycles car or other vehicles; or (ii) use the Property as a commercial campsite; or (iii) unreasonably damage the said tracks (iv) park any motor vehicle, nor erect any gate, fence, barrier or hedge, or otherwise obstruct or allow any obstruction to any reserved track. (b) not to dispose of part or parts only of the Property whether by sale, lease, gift, charge or otherwise. An ideal location for conservation and recreation. The quiet elevation lends itself to an overnight camping stop or maybe the construction of a small cabin within the hutting framework.
Craigview Wood is a beautiful and secluded woodland retreat. Local activity facilities include; canoeing at nearby Loch Ken and on the river Dee, horse riding, hillwalking and stargazing, including recent spectacular views of the northern lights: the wood is within the Galloway dark skies area. Threave Castle and Castle Douglas food town are a short walk or cycle from the site. The surrounding roads are quiet and suitable for cyclists and horse riders.
