Is your land in Burry Port the kind we want?
Small sites in and around Burry Port are central to what we look for, from corner plots to the odd field on the edge of a nearby village. In Dyfed, Burry Port sits about 12 miles south of Carmarthen; Llanelli and Gorseinon are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Small fields or paddocks next to villages
- Garage blocks and small yards
- Plots with consent for one to nine homes
- Land within or touching a settlement boundary
Housing growth in Dyfed is planned through Local Development Plans, with land submitted at the candidate site stage. Llanelli, Carmarthen and the Haven towns see most demand, while flood risk under TAN 15 matters on the Loughor estuary, the coast and river valleys such as the Tywi.
What usually makes or breaks it
Design fit
A small scheme has to suit the street and the neighbours.
Access
Even small sites need a safe access and parking.
Affordable housing thresholds
In England affordable housing is usually only sought on schemes of ten or more homes; in Wales many councils seek contributions from smaller sites, sometimes a single home.
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.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 116 miles from Burry Port, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
