Why buy a smallholding in Lancashire

Lancashire is grass and livestock country. 82% of its farmed land is grass, across 3,399 commercial holdings running about 215,000 cattle and 633,000 sheep. For a smallholding that means grazing to let or take nearby, working livestock markets, and neighbours who farm.

Yorkshire Dales National Park, the Arnside and Silverdale National Landscape, and the Forest of Bowland National Landscape protect a large part of Lancashire, 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 14 councils in Lancashire, so rules on agricultural occupancy conditions and barn conversions vary by district. Our guides cover what to check before you offer.

Can I build on or live on a smallholding in Lancashire?

I'm selling a smallholding in Lancashire. How do I reach these buyers?
