Why buy a building plot in Cornwall
The Cornwall National Landscape, the Isles of Scilly National Landscape, and the Tamar Valley National Landscape protect a large part of Cornwall, which keeps the countryside you are buying into as it is. Building or converting inside a protected landscape needs more care.
1,223 people were on Cornwall's council self-build registers at October 2024. Councils must grant enough permissions to meet that demand, so registering with your council as well as with us is worth doing.
Planning is decided by 2 councils in Cornwall (Cornwall and Isles of Scilly), so rules on agricultural occupancy conditions and barn conversions vary by district. Our guides cover what to check before you offer.
