Farmland and paddocks wanted in Rhoose
We are actively looking for farmland and paddocks in Rhoose and the surrounding area, with or without planning permission.
Farmland and paddocks can become development land when they sit beside a settlement that needs new homes. We look for fields on the edges of towns and villages across England and Wales and work with owners on options, conditional contracts and joint ventures.

Farmland and paddocks we are looking for in Rhoose
Around Rhoose, paddocks and fields beside existing homes can have real potential, even where they have been grazed or farmed for generations. Rhoose is in South Glamorgan, about 10 miles south-west of Cardiff. Nearby places include Barry, Llantwit Major and Penarth.
- Parcels from a few acres to whole holdings
- Land put forward to a Local Development Plan candidate site process
- Land let on a farm business tenancy or grazing licence
- Farmland where the owner wants to keep farming meanwhile
South Glamorgan covers Cardiff and the rural Vale to the west, including Barry, Penarth, Llantwit Major and Rhoose. Green wedges protect open land around Cardiff, and Future Wales anticipates a green belt for the wider region once a regional plan sets its boundary. Typical sites include brownfield and former industrial land in Cardiff, edge-of-town fields around Barry and the Vale villages, and infill plots, with coastal and river flood risk assessed under TAN 15.
What decides whether a site in Rhoose works
Relationship to the settlement
Land that reads as an extension of a place is usually more promising than isolated fields.
Tenancies
Agricultural tenancies affect when vacant possession can be given; we check the type and terms.
Landscape
Protected landscapes and sensitive views limit what may be acceptable.
The Planning (Wales) Act 2026 received Royal Assent on 27 April 2026 and is being brought into force in stages, consolidating Welsh planning law into a single Welsh framework.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 101 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Questions owners in Rhoose ask
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.

Anything from a single paddock to larger holdings. Smaller parcels next to villages can be very suitable.
Can an agent introduce land in Rhoose 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.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Rhoose assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
