Farms, Estates & Rural Leisure

As well as the management, valuation, sale and acquisition of land, farms and estates, we offer a wide range of professional property services in relation to all types of rural property and leisure businesses.

Overview

Carter Jonas' Rural Division deals with all aspects of rural land and business - managing over 1.3 million acres on behalf of clients and advising the owners of farms, land and estates across the UK on all aspects of their portfolio.

We first opened for business over 170 years ago. We’ve gone a long way since then, adopting the very highest of standards and scaling the peaks of our profession.

Services

  • Property management ➔

    Whether a property has been in a family for generations or recently acquired, our approach is to understand your objectives – what you want to achieve.

  • Sales & acquisitions ➔

    Selling an estate, farm or bare land can be an exciting process. But estate sales can also be stressful and even overwhelming – especially if you’re parting with a property you’ve owned or lived in for years.

  • Rural valuations ➔

    At Carter Jonas, valuation is one of our core services and sits at the root of all property decision making.

  • Farming & agribusiness ➔

    Carter Jonas’ farm consultancy team works with landowners and farmers of all sizes, throughout the country, and specialises in maximising potential from their businesses.

  • Compulsory purchase compensation ➔

    Compulsory purchase is a severe state power. Though infrastructure benefits us all, the process is often long, uncertain and life‑changing for affected individuals.

  • Farm grants & subsidies ➔

    Our rural experts can help your farm business make the most of the support available, from ELMS, Countryside Stewardship and other grants and subsidies.

  • Strategic reviews ➔

    The rural industry is in an era of monumental change, bringing with it both challenges and opportunities that will affect the way rural property can be structured and managed.

Sectors

  • Leisure & diversification ➔

    Carter Jonas specialises in the buying and selling of holiday cottages, holiday let businesses and leisure businesses in the South West and across the UK.

  • Forestry, woodland & arboriculture ➔

    Whilst woodland has always formed the core of many estates, its value has often been dictated by a number of, often competing, factors: sporting interests, commerciality, amenity or biodiversity.

  • Equestrian property ➔

    Carter Jonas provides equestrian property agency and professional services - including management, valuation, building surveying and planning - across England and Wales.

  • Natural capital ➔

    Natural capital – naturally occurring assets that provide a benefit to the environment or the population or the economy – is one of the hottest topics within the rural industry.

  • Minerals & waste management ➔

    Our Chartered Surveyors and Planners provide leading estate management, valuation and development advice for mineral properties, waste management matters and associated infrastructure.

  • Energy ➔

    Our market‑leading energy team of surveyors, valuers, environmental specialists, project managers and planners provides independent advice on every aspect of an energy project.
