Why buy a smallholding in Derbyshire

Derbyshire is grass and livestock country. 74% of its farmed land is grass, across 2,832 commercial holdings running about 156,000 cattle and 390,000 sheep. For a smallholding that means grazing to let or take nearby, working livestock markets, and neighbours who farm.

Peak District National Park protect a large part of Derbyshire, which keeps the countryside you are buying into as it is. Building or converting inside a protected landscape needs more care, and inside a National Park the park authority, not the council, decides planning.

Planning is decided by 9 councils in Derbyshire, so rules on agricultural occupancy conditions and barn conversions vary by district. Our guides cover what to check before you offer.
