It is made up of a bar-built estuarine complex, comprising the Dyfi estuary, two calcareous dune systems, and a large, raised mire. The Dyfi is one of the best examples in north-west Europe of a small, drying, nutrient-poor estuary, which has been relatively unaffected by industrial development.

Cors Fochno is of international importance being the type locality for estuarine raised mire and one of the largest active raised mires in the United Kingdom. The geomorphology, flora and invertebrate faunas are of national importance. RSPB Ynys-hir supports one of two regular wintering flocks of Greenland White-fronted Geese in England and Wales and is a key site in Wales for breeding waders. The area, including RSPB Ynys-hir, supports significant tourist trade and recreational usage, as well as housing the main train line from Machynlleth to Aberystwyth, run by Network Rail.The Dyfi Estuary is under major threat from climate driven sea-level rise, tidal surges and changes in rainfall, with embankments failing, breaches increasingly frequent and challenges for statutory bodies to invest in future flood defences, as well as socio-economic and cultural challenges such as ageing populations, reliance on seasonal income, multiple deprivation and stakeholder conflict. Well-planned and informed sustainable management of the area is needed to manage flood risk proactively and adapt for climate change.(WA Ref:143218)The buyer considers that this contract is suitable for consortia bidding.
