What strategic land we want near Pembroke Dock
Larger landholdings on the approaches to Pembroke Dock are where strategic land usually comes from, particularly near transport links. Pembroke Dock lies about 29 miles west of Carmarthen in Dyfed. We also cover Pembroke, Milford Haven, Haverfordwest and the villages between them.
- Land for 50 or more homes next to a town or larger village
- Land near railway stations or good bus routes
- Holdings where neighbouring owners may collaborate
- Land with more than one possible access point
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.
Before we make an offer in Pembroke Dock
Infrastructure
Schools, roads, drainage and power capacity shape what a large site must provide.
Land assembly
Larger schemes often need several owners to agree a fair way to share value.
Promotion costs
Technical studies and plan representations cost money; under an option we pay them up front, and any recovery from the price is capped in the heads of terms.
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.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 142 miles from Pembroke Dock, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Questions owners in Pembroke Dock ask
Do I need to do anything while the land is promoted?
Usually very little beyond signing representations and allowing surveys. You normally keep using the land.
What if my neighbours own part of the best site?
We can help bring owners together under an equalisation arrangement so value is shared fairly, whoever ends up with the roads or open space.
Which planning rules apply to land in Pembroke Dock?
As Pembroke Dock is in Wales, national policy comes from Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Pembroke Dock assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
