The Property - Dragons Hill Wood extends to approximately 1.39 acres (0.56 ha) and offers a rare opportunity to purchase a piece of unspoilt woodland in the West Dorset countryside. This parcel of very gently sloping woodland consists of mainly native deciduous trees carpeted with bluebells in season, and is largely bounded by traditional banks. Conveniently located, there is good vehicle access off a quiet lane through a farm gate. There are fine views over the valley to the west.

Situation - Dragons Hill Wood is set on the edge of the popular historic resort of Lyme Regis on the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. Lyme Regis is renowned for the historic Cobb harbour and sandy beach, whilst the nearby market town of Axminster has a mainline train station. Surrounded by the beautiful countryside of the Dorset National Landscape, there is excellent walking close by with access to both the South West Coastal path and the East Devon Way. According to local legend Dragons Hill is so named due to its shape, after the local fossil hunter Mary Anning's first plesiosaurus fossil find in the early 19th century , which was likened to a "dragon".

Services - None connected.

Tenure - Freehold with vacant possession upon completion.

Rights Of Way - No rights of way cross the woodland. There is a bridleway that runs adjacent to the northern boundary of the woodland.
