The barns and rural buildings that interests us around Pembroke
Farm buildings near Pembroke that have fallen out of use may suit conversion, particularly traditional barns with a good access. Sitting about 29 miles south-west of Carmarthen, Pembroke is within Dyfed, with Pembroke Dock and Milford Haven close by.
- Traditional brick or stone barns
- Stable blocks, workshops and rural yards
- Buildings with an existing access to a road
- Buildings with or without an existing consent
Dyfed covers west and south-west Wales, from Llanelli and the Amman valley to Carmarthen, Aberystwyth, Haverfordwest and the Milford Haven waterway. There is no green belt, but the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and part of Bannau Brycheiniog National Park are major constraints. Phosphate limits in the Teifi and Cleddau river catchments have slowed some housing schemes, and sites often come forward as edge-of-town land, village infill and farm buildings.
Checks we make on barns and rural buildings in Pembroke
Structure
Conversion routes usually require the building to be capable of conversion without substantial rebuilding.
Protected species
Bats and barn owls are common in rural buildings and need surveys at the right time of year.
Protected landscapes
National Parks and National Landscapes can restrict permitted development and design.
Flood risk in Wales is assessed under Technical Advice Note 15 and the Flood Map for Planning, which can be decisive for land near rivers and the coast.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 141 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Questions owners in Pembroke ask
Does Class Q apply in Wales?
No. Class Q is part of the permitted development rules for England. In Wales, barn conversions generally need a full planning application.
Do bats stop a barn conversion?
Not usually, but surveys and mitigation are needed, and survey seasons can affect timing.

Yes. We buy barns and rural buildings in Pembroke and throughout Dyfed, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Which planning rules apply to land in Pembroke?
As Pembroke is in Wales, national policy comes from Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
