What we look for around Burry Port
- Modern steel-framed agricultural buildings no longer needed
- Farmyards with several buildings and hardstanding
- Buildings with existing road access
- Buildings already granted planning permission
Redundant farm buildings can be worth far more as homes than as storage. The route to consent depends on the building, its location and whether you're in England or Wales.
How we arrive at a figure for land in Dyfed

Services
Water, power and drainage to remote buildings can be expensive.
Retained land

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.
Agricultural buildings
England's Class Q rights don't apply in Wales. Converting a barn to a home in Wales generally needs planning permission.
Heritage
Listed buildings and scheduled monuments in Wales are managed with Cadw and the council's conservation officers.
When the land isn't straightforward
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
- A rough size, in acres or hectares

Questions from landowners near Burry Port
Will you buy a barn in poor condition?
Yes, but condition affects the planning route and the cost, so it affects the price.
Do I need surveys before selling?
No. We arrange what we need. If you already have structural or ecology surveys, they help.
What if bats are present?
Bat roosts don't usually stop a conversion, but they need surveys, licences and timing. We allow for this in the offer.
Can you visit land near Burry Port?
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.
