Hi there, my name is Andrea Cooke and i would love any help i can get to reach my goal in getting a smallholding.
I live with my hubby (Robert) and 2 kids. We live in South Lanarkshire, but are willing to buy anywhere in Scotland.





If you can help please email me.
Kind Regards Andrea  :thumbsup:

Hi Andrea
welcome to the forum.  Happy Hippy (Karen) is in Lanarkshire - I'm sure she'll be along in a minute to say hello. Do you have any animals or grow any fruit or veg at the moment?

I think the smallholding you look fro will depend on what you can spend - there are a few country property websites, and there was a thread on here a wee while ago with the web addresses.  I'll see if I can find it for you.

Hello and welcome from a wild windy and wet Wales,

Good luck with your search - hope you find what you want.

You'll never regret it, it's a wonderful life, hard work sometimes but the good bits are worth the hard.

There'll be a smallholding coming on the market near me next year - I'll put up a link when it's on for anyone interested in not-quite-Scotland!
