  • Again this is from a place of 99% ignorance, but isn't there something special about woodland from a tax or investment perspective? And isn't that why it's more expensive?

    If so shit farm land would probably be the cheapest entry. I wonder if with Goves various wildlife policies there's an easy route to renaturising or whatever so in 5yrs you could have something that looks less like a shit bit of field.

  • No IHT, subject to a few additional conditions. Small parcels are always more expensive per acre. Still a reasonable amount of woodland grants are available. Woodlands are quite decent to deal with, basically, they buy a large plot, then split it down, add covenants, provide basic support etc. Friend owns a small parcel bought through them, he seems happy enough, uses it frequently.
