How to legally live on agricultural land

by Administrator

Here at Scandinavian Log Cabins we are very often contacted by smallholders who have been denied permission by their local authority to live on their smallholding. Very often the reason given is because they cannot prove that they need to live on the land in order to run their business. Smallholders sometimes think the planning officers want a countryside empty of people.

However if one is familiar with all the regulations it is perfectly possible to legally live on a smallholding without requiring planning permission.

There is a very good book on the subject by planning consultant David Acreman called "Field to Farm. In his book David guides you through the labyrinth of regulations that are so daunting to aspiring smallholders. Field to Farm is invaluable for anyone who wants to start an agricultural business.

David Acreman will be a guest on the Scandinavian Log Cabin Direct stand at the Homebuilding and Renovating show at the NEC in Birmingham March 18th to 20th. This is an ideal opportunity to talk to David about your planning issues and at the same time discuss with us a cabin to put on your small holding for your new agricultural business.
