What Wales's rules mean for your land
Planning framework
Planning in Wales follows Planning Policy Wales, the national plan Future Wales and the Local Development Plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. When plans are reviewed, landowners can put land forward as a candidate site.
Green belts and green wedges
England's grey belt rules don't apply in Wales. Planning Policy Wales sets out green belt and green wedge policy, which strongly restricts development.
Biodiversity
Wales doesn't use England's 10% net gain metric. Planning Policy Wales expects development to deliver a net benefit for biodiversity.

What people ask us about land
Can you visit land near Holyhead?
Yes. Once we've looked at the title and planning position, we arrange a site visit if the land looks suitable. Send the address or postcode to start.
Do you cover the villages around Holyhead?
Yes. Villages between Holyhead, Llangefni and Caernarfon often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
How fast can I sell my land?
It depends on the land and the deal. A straightforward outright sale of registered land with no tenants can move as fast as the two solicitors can complete the legal work. Unregistered titles, tenancies, access questions and planning conditions all add time. We won't promise a completion date until we've seen the title.
Can I sell part of my garden?
Yes. Your solicitor will divide the title, and your mortgage lender will need to agree to release the land if it has a charge over it.
