Renting Land
« on: July 29, 2012, 12:12:46 pm »
Myself and another Student are looking to rent some grazing ground near Edinburgh to start a small flock of Romney Ewes.
Does anybody know of any such land available or people I could contact?

Thanks

You may want to sign up with the local council or water board they rent land relatively cheap on long term rent down here don't know why they wouldn't do the same up there  :)

Down here we can rent a 2acre field from our local authority for £80 a year so as already said might be worth checking with your local authority

May be able to help if the Borders are not considered too far from Edinburgh.

Thanks for the replies.

Where abouts  in the Borders?
Depends on how far as we are both at Uni and as well need to check them everyday the lesser the distance the better?
