I'm thinking of selling 4.5 acres with stables, barn and shelter. I have CLEUD on it all, similar to planning permission but no restrictions and no enforcement action can be taken. No house, just equestrian land and buildings. If you've done similar (I'm in the south east) did you put it to auction? Or sell via agent? And who did you use or who would you avoid.
 
I sold my yard and land earlier this year, sounds similar set up as no domestic property, no mains services except water. No complications whatsoever, from access to ownership, use, good land (not clay) in SE, etc etc
Got 3 valuations on it. One was crackers high, the other 2 a bit over what I'd thought. (Crackers high came from a firm that regularly over values, often see properties hanging around for ages, owner abrupt and actually was a 'didnt show' for 1st appointment, an hour late for rebooked one - Pelhams)
Had already had tentative offer from adjacent property some 5 years ago requesting 1st refusal.
Approached these folk and also another adjoining property to let them know.
Folk number 1 came back v quickly with offer that was agreeable to me, then we both instructed sols. No agents required. Sold.
 
I would look around at who's selling similar in your area

I totally agree about getting valuations done (before committing either way) and then approaching neighbours on all sides and I'd probably even pop an add on my local horsey facebook page.
Realistically someone local and horsey will buy it - it's unlikely someone from out of the area or unrelated to horses would be the right buyer.
 
We're ME3. I can't find anything remotely similar in our area. Actually finding land in the UK with equestrian use established is difficult, it's mostly agri, suitable for equestrian STP.
