The things that move our offer
Position
A paddock next to houses has far more potential than one in open countryside.
Access width
Access needs to be wide enough for a road if homes are to be built.
Change of use history
Equestrian use may already have needed planning permission; we check the record.
Neighbours' views
Overlooking and outlook affect what layout a council will accept.
Four routes to a sale
If you no longer keep horses, or simply want to release capital, we can look at your paddock and tell you whether it has value beyond grazing.

A clean sale reflecting grazing and any hope value.
Subject-to-planning sale
We complete once homes are approved on the paddock.
Option agreements
Useful where the paddock could form part of a wider site.
Joint ventures

What England's rules mean for your land
Planning framework
Planning decisions in England follow the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026, and the local plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. Plans are reviewed periodically, which is when new housing sites are usually allocated.
Farm tenancies
Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies have their own notice and compensation rules, which affect when land can be developed.
Land registration
Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.
Awkward details we deal with
The only access is a narrow track
We measure what's there and see if it can be widened or combined with neighbouring land.
You still keep horses on part of it
We can look at buying part of the land and leaving you the rest, with access protected.
Useful to send us
- Your title number, if you know it
- Any planning applications or letters
- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
- Photos of the land and its access
Questions from landowners in Cornwall
Will you buy the stables too?
Yes. We buy the whole site as it stands, including buildings and fencing, unless you'd like to keep something.
What if the paddock is landlocked?
Landlocked paddocks are worth less, but can still be valuable to an adjoining owner or as part of a wider scheme.
How long does a paddock sale take?
If the title is registered and there are no disputes, the legal work is usually the main timescale.
Do you buy land in Cornwall?
Yes. We consider land across Cornwall, from Truro to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
