What land without planning permission we want near Llantwit Major
For land on the edges of Llantwit Major with no consent yet, the first questions are access, flood risk and how the council's current plan treats the area. Llantwit Major is in South Glamorgan, about 14 miles west of Cardiff. Nearby places include Rhoose, Bridgend and Pencoed.
- Land the owner has put forward to a Local Development Plan candidate site process
- Plots within towns and villages that have never been built on
- Land where a previous application was refused for reasons that could be overcome
- Land of any size, including single plots
Cardiff is a major focus for new homes in Wales, with regeneration around Cardiff Bay, the city centre and stations on the South Wales Metro. The Glamorgan Heritage Coast, conservation areas and the airport at Rhoose shape what is suitable in the rural Vale.
What usually makes or breaks it
Policy direction
National and local policy decides how a fresh application would be judged, so we read both before advising.
Who pays for planning
Applications, surveys and reports cost money; on conditional and option deals we normally pay for them up front, and any costs deducted from the price are agreed and capped.
Your involvement
You can sell now, sell subject to planning, or grant an option; each asks a different amount of you.
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.

No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 103 miles from Llantwit Major, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Which planning rules apply to land in Llantwit Major?
