The beautiful pewter tree token you have been given is a symbol of the tree that has been planted for you in Bosky Bethlehem Woodland in South Wales. This woodland has been created by a partnership between 9Trees, the Landowner and you.
Here is some information about the woodland where your tree is planted and tells you what you need to know if you decide to visit the woodland. Please remember that only 9Trees Subscribers are invited to visit this woodland with their friends & family.
Where is Bosky Bethlehem Woodland?
Bosky Bethlehem is in South Wales, on the Western fringes of the Brecon Beacons, high above the River Tywi. The address for the property is: Gwynfe Road, Dyffryn Cennen, Llandeilo, SA19 6YT.
Please check the 9Trees Website (Scroll down to Bosky Bethlehem & use password: 9Trees#6035) for a map and further information.
A little parking is available by the access gate and there is a path to walk down to the woodland. Don’t try to drive down the path to the woodland – it is not suitable for vehicles.
Please pay attention to the weather when you are planning to visit; it is unwise to go onto the fells when it is cold, wet and windy.
Visiting Bosky Bethlehem
Bosky Bethlehem is a large woodland, planted in partnership with Sarah Rapley on land behind her home. The woodland will be planted in two phases, with the first 2,000 trees planted in the 2022 planting season. You are welcome to visit if you are a 9Trees subscriber or you have sponsored trees in this woodland.
Please park in the gateway at the top of the lane to the woodland, but don’t block it. The area around the woodland is registered commonland so you can enjoy a walk across the extensive landscape but you must keep dogs under control at all times to prevent them from disturbing the wildlife and from troubling the livestock.
The surface is very uneven underfoot so please take care and consider using a walking stick.
Things to remember during your visit
1. Park in the designated parking area; don’t block gateways or passing places on the road.
2. Please prepare well for your visit. Remember to wear good boots or all-weather gear and bring some water with you.
3. Do not have fires or barbeques and take all your litter home with you.
4. Do not tie balloons to the trees, mark them with tassels or signs or release sky-lanterns.
5. Please respect any particular instructions from the Landowner on the day of your visit and be prepared to show them your tree token with the accompanying card to enter the woodland if challenged.
6. It is essential to keep your dogs on a lead when you are near livestock and under control at all times.
7. There are no toilets nearby. You will need to travel into Llandeilo to find toilets to use.
8. If you bring family & friends along, tell them about 9Trees and suggest they make a donation.
9. Please remember that only 9Trees Subscribers are invited to visit this woodland with their friends & family.
