Is your land in Bangor the kind we want?
Fields that wrap around the edges of Bangor and its neighbouring villages are the farmland we most want to talk about. Bangor is in Gwynedd, about 8 miles north-east of Caernarfon. Nearby places include Llangefni, Caernarfon and Deganwy.
- Land with road frontage or a farm track to a road
- Parcels from a few acres to whole holdings
- Land let on a farm business tenancy or grazing licence
- Farmland where the owner wants to keep farming meanwhile
Gwynedd, as used here, covers north-west Wales and Anglesey, including Bangor, Caernarfon, Holyhead, Llangefni, Porthmadog and Pwllheli. Eryri National Park and the Llŷn and Anglesey National Landscapes cover much of the land, and there is no green belt. Sites tend to be small: edge-of-village land, infill plots, farm buildings and brownfield land in the towns, with Welsh language impact and local housing need often central to decisions.
What usually makes or breaks it
Relationship to the settlement
Land that reads as an extension of a place is usually more promising than isolated fields.
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.
In Wales, planning decisions are guided by Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040, with land for housing identified through each council's Local Development Plan, including candidate site stages when plans are reviewed.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 104 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Farmland and paddocks in Bangor: common questions
Can I keep farming while you pursue planning?
Yes. Under an option or a conditional contract the land normally stays in your hands, and in use, until completion.
How much land do you need?
Anything from a single paddock to larger holdings. Smaller parcels next to villages can be very suitable.
Can an agent introduce land in Bangor to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
How quickly can you look at a site in Bangor?
For most sites we can give an initial view once we have the location and a plan. Detailed checks follow if the land looks suitable.
