What farmland and paddocks we want near Tewkesbury
We are looking for farmland near Tewkesbury with a realistic access, ideally land the owner has already put forward to the local plan. In Gloucestershire, Tewkesbury sits about 9 miles north of Gloucester; Cheltenham and Gloucester are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Land with road frontage or a farm track to a road
- Parcels from a few acres to whole holdings
- Land put forward to a local plan or call for sites
- Land let on a farm business tenancy or grazing licence
Gloucestershire, as used here, includes the Bristol fringe towns of Kingswood and Yate as well as Gloucester, Cheltenham, Stroud, Tewkesbury and Cirencester. Green Belt lies between Cheltenham and Gloucester and around the Bristol edge, while the Cotswolds, Wye Valley and Malvern Hills National Landscapes cover much of the countryside. Sites typically include edge-of-town fields, village infill, farm buildings and former employment land along the M5.
What decides whether a site in Tewkesbury works
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.
Landscape
Protected landscapes and sensitive views limit what may be acceptable.
In England, the revised National Planning Policy Framework published on 17 August 2026 replaced the old "tilted balance" with new settlement policies: development within a settlement should normally be approved unless the harm substantially outweighs the benefits, while land outside a settlement can gain support in defined circumstances.
Parts of Gloucestershire are Green Belt, though not every town has any nearby. We check early whether a site is inside it and, if so, whether a grey belt or previously developed land case could apply.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 40 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Your questions answered
My land is let to a tenant. Can I still sell?
Usually, yes. The type of tenancy decides how and when possession can be obtained, so we look at the agreement early.
How much land do you need?
Anything from a single paddock to larger holdings. Smaller parcels next to villages can be very suitable.

Is Tewkesbury too far from our Birmingham base?
