Hi Simon,
Thanks for your enquiry.
Our scouts are currently looking at properties in your targeted counties.
On our rounds, we found this one – we think ticks a few boxes on your checklist:
3 Bed Smallholding For Sale With Outbuildings & 12 Acres of Pasture & Woodland in Skegness (£525K)
It’s near your budget, in Lincs and with plenty pasture for your horses…
What are your thoughts?
We’re still scanning those territories and will come back with further finds shortly.
Speak soon…
Hi Balbinder,
Just coming back to you re: your search for a 20 acre plot of land in West Mids to host your community project.
For reference, here are the county pages:
Glad that you have connected with Elizabeth Wadington re: landscape planning – she comes highly recommended by many.
Here are the latest findings from our scouts:
…it’s a little under the 20-acre prescribed, but not by much. Woodland and suitable for a variety of uses and mixed amenities. No outbuildings. And at a good price.
…further north than you asked, but still only Cheshire. More acreage and still a deced price. Flat ground and greater potential for camping etc.
…the is productive land, so not sure about the suitability for your project. But the location, acreage and price are all on point.
Looking forward to your feedback.

A well-rounded introduction to the UK permitted development rules (The Federation of Master Builders)
Permitted development rules and regulations give homeowners the right to build extensions and make certain changes to their homes without the need to go through the planning permission process.
In this guide, we explore the rules that apply in England.
- What are permitted development rights?
- What can I do under permitted development?

Hi Nihad,
How’s the smallholding hunting going?
Thanks for your recent request for information on the market in Buxton…here are some recent discoveries from our scouts:
In Buxton
…it’s slightly outside of your price range, but perhaps negotiable. Just enough acreage and planning for further development. Drawback: it’s semi-detached…but in Buxton.
In Derbyshire
- Two Storey Barn For Sale Requiring Renovation With Planning For Conversion, Outbuildings & 1.22 Acres of Land in Bamford Village (£285K)
- Derelict Bungalow For Sale (By Auction) Requiring Renovation With Barns Including Planning Permission & 34.79 Acres of Land in Homesfield (£500K)
…both of these require renovation, but include planning permission for conversion. The first is considerably under budget with small acreage, and the second one is slightly over budget BUT auctioned and with much more acreage.
We’ll continue to look for more listings in Buxton, neighbouring areas in Sheffield and then Yorkshire (S & W) and Lincs.
Speak soon – let us know how you get on…
Hi,
Thanks for your enquiry. Here are some currently available options to consider:
- 3 Bed Bungalow Smallholding For Sale With 19.91 Acres of Croftland in Isle of Lewis (£165K)
- 5 Bed Smallholding For Sale (Previously Run As B&B) With Outbuilding inc. Food Prep Area & 3.98 Acres of Croftland in Isle of Lewis (£245K)
- 4 Bed Smallholding For Sale With 8.46 Acres of Croftland in Isle of Lewis (£200K)
- 5 Bed Croft Smallholding For Sale With 5.88 Acres of Croftland in Isle of Lewis (£235K)
- 3 Bed Smallholding For Sale With 2.3 Acres of Croftland in Acharacle (£320K)
- 3 Bed Croft Smallholding For Sale With Derelict Outbuildings & 7.4 Acres of Croftland in Strontian (£335K)
There’s a fair spread – mostly in reach of your budget with a variety of amenities.
Drawbacks are they are often crofts – so you’ll need to navigate the local legislation re: crofting. But note that with some croft properties – there are portions of the land which is de-crofted…that said, by the sounds of things, you’re looking to be productive with the land anyway which falls in line with the Crofting Commission.
But all in all, there’s plenty of potential for hosting your home-based livestock business.
That’s all for now…
What you make of our finds? Let us know how you get on…
