How we arrive at a figure for land in Gwynedd
Access width
Access needs to be wide enough for a road if homes are to be built.
Existing buildings
Stables and hardstanding may count as previously developed land in some cases.
Change of use history
Equestrian use may already have needed planning permission; we check the record.
Drainage
Paddocks without mains drainage nearby can be costly to connect.
Four routes to a sale
Outright purchase
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
Suits owners of larger equestrian yards with redevelopment potential.

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.
Farm tenancies
Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies apply in Wales as in England, with their own notice and compensation rules.
Land registration
HM Land Registry covers Wales as well as England. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold.
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.
A neighbour has used the field informally
Long informal use can raise questions about rights. Your solicitor will check this early.
Useful to send us
- A rough size, in acres or hectares
- Your title number, if you know it
- Any planning applications or letters
- Photos of the land and its access
Common questions
Do I need planning permission to sell a paddock?
No. You can sell it as it is. Permission only matters to the value and the type of deal.
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.
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 cover the villages around Blaenau-Ffestiniog?
Yes. Villages between Blaenau-Ffestiniog, Bethesda and Caernarfon often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
