Description
Shinside Wood is a productive loch-side plantation situated on sloping ground with a southwesterly aspect overlooking Loch Shin. The 50.82-acre property was planted in 1989 and is now approaching production phase, with the promise of healthy volumes of quality timber in the next 5-10 years. The wood is dominated by Sitka spruce, with some areas planted in mixture with nurse species such as Japanese larch and lodgepole pine. The perimeter fence is in good condition, but small breaches have allowed deer to enter the plantation, providing potential for woodland stalking. The property also features small streams, broadleaves, and occasional rides, offering opportunities for off-grid recreation, including the possibility of a woodland hut (subject to necessary consents). The surrounding lochs and rivers provide scope for angling, and the adjacent public road offers a convenient route for transporting timber to market.
