Description
An exciting opportunity to acquire a well-established block of woodland offering a dense variety of mature trees, historically utilised as a nursery site. The woodland sits on the edge of the village of Darley Dale boasting good roadside access points, perfect for those with rich environmental, lifestyle, or investment interests.
Informal Tender | Deadline Wednesday 29th July 2026 | 12pm.
Location - The woodland sits in a semi-rural location, close-by to the Peak District National Park, whilst being situated on the outskirts of Darley Dale village where a wide range of amenities can be found. Further nearby towns include: Matlock to the southeast (3.7 miles), Bakewell to the northwest (5.4 miles), Buxton to the northwest (17.3 miles), and Chesterfield to the north (9.9 miles). The cities of Derby, Sheffield, and Nottingham are each within a 30 mile commute respectively. Despite its easy access for commuters to nearby commercial districts it is immediately surrounded by open countryside.
Description - A parcel of woodland situated in a rural yet highly-accessible location, within the village of Darley Dale, extending to approximately 7.51 acres (3.04 hectares). The woodland is of manageable size, offering a wide variety of well-established mature tree species with a dense mixed bramble and grassy understorey. The woodland benefits from two good roadside access points from Bent Lane, and formerly utilised as a nursery site, with an aged internal track for vehicular access running through—convenient for maintenance.
The woodland offers excellent amenity appeal in a rural setting, whilst remaining close-by to amenities, suiting a wide range of buyers including neighbouring landowners, amenity purchasers and those seeking a lifestyle interest with an element of timber and sporting value. The woodland is also likely to appeal to investment purchasers and those with rich-environmental interests.
Directions - From Matlock town centre, head north west on A6 Bakewell Road. Continue along the road for approx. 3.3 miles heading through Darley Dale. Just after the Grouse Inn turn right onto Whitworth Road and follow the road up the hill for around 0.5 miles. Then take a right turn onto Foggs Hill before turning right again into Bent Lane. The property can be found approximately quarter of a mile up on the left hand side, identified by our ‘For Sale’ board.
