Why buy a smallholding in Yorkshire
Yorkshire farms a mix: 50% grass and 31% cereals across 11,279 commercial holdings, with about 503,000 cattle and 1,859,000 sheep. Both grazing and cropping are established here, so most kinds of holding have a market around them.
North York Moors National Park, Peak District National Park, Yorkshire Dales National Park, the Forest of Bowland National Landscape, the Howardian Hills National Landscape, and the Nidderdale National Landscape protect a large part of Yorkshire, 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 15 councils in Yorkshire, 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 Yorkshire?
- It depends on planning. North York Moors National Park, Peak District National Park, Yorkshire Dales National Park, the Forest of Bowland National Landscape, the Howardian Hills National Landscape, and the Nidderdale National Landscape protect a large part of Yorkshire, 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. Our guides cover what agricultural permitted development allows and when you need full permission.
- Does it cost anything to register?
- No. Registering and connecting with a seller are both free for buyers, and your name and contact details stay private until you choose to connect.
- I'm selling a smallholding in Yorkshire. How do I reach these buyers?
- Check how many buyers match yours first, which is free. To advertise, owners pay a flat £59 for six months, or £29 where fewer than 5 buyers match, and every matching buyer is emailed once the advert is live. There is no commission.
