Cornwall Council is looking for a tenant to take on the Farm Business Tenancy of Meudon Farm, near Falmouth, comprises 100 acres of predominantly Grade 2 pasture land and benefits from a well-equipped range of modern farm buildings. The holding is being offered on an 11-year FBT.
The site features a four-bay timber frame building with a central passage and cubicles, alongside further sheds which include two Dutch barns.
“While currently all in pasture, the landlord is open to proposals involving arable use of some of the land, subject to the prior written consent of the landlord being given first,” says Truro-based Chris Anderson, Partner at Carter Jonas.
“Diversification proposals, alongside the principal farming enterprise, will be considered, but the holding should remain in predominantly agricultural use as a livestock/mixed farming enterprise.
“Viewings will take place on Tuesday 29 July and Thursday 7 August, and the tender deadline is at midday on Monday 18 August.”
Cornwall Council’s ideal tenant would either be a new entrant looking to establish a new farming venture, an existing grazier looking to bring together all their farming activity in a fully-equipped holding or an existing tenant on a smaller acreage, for which Meudon would provide a progression step for their business.
