Farmland and paddocks we are looking for in Carmarthen
Around Carmarthen, paddocks and fields beside existing homes can have real potential, even where they have been grazed or farmed for generations. As the county town of Dyfed, Carmarthen anchors the area we cover here, along with Burry Port, Llanelli and Ammanford.
- Fields and paddocks adjoining a town, village or suburb
- Land with road frontage or a farm track to a road
- Parcels from a few acres to whole holdings
- Farmland where the owner wants to keep farming meanwhile
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 farmland and paddocks in Carmarthen
Tenancies
Agricultural tenancies affect when vacant possession can be given; we check the type and terms.
Farm schemes
Environmental and payment schemes may have obligations to unwind or agree.
Best and most versatile land
High-grade agricultural land can be a factor in planning decisions.
Welsh planning policy seeks a net benefit for biodiversity rather than using England's statutory biodiversity net gain metric, so ecology is assessed differently on Welsh sites.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 112 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.
