The things that move our offer
Planning route

Protected species
Bats and barn owls are common in old barns and surveys may be needed.
Services
Water, power and drainage to remote buildings can be expensive.
Retained land
Selling buildings from a working farm needs rights carefully reserved.
Choosing how to sell
Outright purchase
Suits buildings with consent or prior approval already in place.
Subject-to-planning sale
We complete once planning consent is secured.
Option agreements
Less common for single buildings but can suit whole farmyards.
Joint ventures
Worth considering for a larger yard you'd like to see developed well.

Planning and legal points for land in Clwyd
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.
Agricultural buildings
England's Class Q rights don't apply in Wales. Converting a barn to a home in Wales generally needs planning permission.
Farm tenancies
Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies apply in Wales as in England, with their own notice and compensation rules.
Awkward details we deal with
The barn is listed
Listed barns can still be converted with consent, but the design must respect the building.
You're in Wales
Welsh permitted development rules differ from England's, so barn conversions here generally need planning permission. We look at the route under Welsh policy.
Useful to send us
- The address or postcode
- Any planning applications or letters
- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
- Photos of the land and its access
Your questions answered
Does Class Q apply in Wales?
No. Class Q is part of English permitted development rules. In Wales, barn conversions generally need planning permission under Welsh policy.
Do I need surveys before selling?
No. We arrange what we need. If you already have structural or ecology surveys, they help.
Can I sell buildings and keep the land around them?
Yes. We can agree a boundary that suits both of us, with access rights protected.
Do you buy land in Llandudno?
Yes. We consider land in and around Llandudno and across Clwyd. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
