Woodlands.co.uk Stops Traffic—Literally—at the Devon County Show

Devon, UK – 19 May 2025 – One of the more unexpected sights at this year’s Devon County Show was a set of traffic lights—not for managing crowds, but as part of a clever and eye-catching display by Woodlands.co.uk.

Designed to mimic the familiar roadside scenes across rural Devon, the stand featured the company’s well-known “Woodlands for Sale” signs and a tongue-in-cheek traffic light, sparking curiosity and plenty of smiles from passers-by. The playful setup captured exactly what makes Woodlands.co.uk so memorable to countryside explorers—those small signs that signal something much bigger: the opportunity to own a peaceful patch of woodland.

“The signs are something people really associate with rural drives, so bringing that to life at the show was a great way to start conversations,” said Stuart Brooking of Woodlands.co.uk. “We spoke to so many visitors who hadn’t realised how straightforward and rewarding it can be to own a small woodland.”

Throughout the three-day event, the team chatted with showgoers about the growing appeal of woodland ownership. Whether it's for conservation, quiet escapes, family adventures, or just a stronger connection to nature, owning a woodland is becoming an increasingly attractive option.

With interest in sustainability and the great outdoors continuing to rise, Woodlands.co.uk has seen a steady increase in demand from individuals and families alike, many of whom are drawn to the idea of owning and caring for their own corner of the countryside.

Woodlands.co.uk offers small, manageable woods for sale across the UK, with guidance and support available for first-time buyers looking to get closer to nature.
