Description
Site 1 – Poplar Farm Retreat
The site was granted planning permission in 2019 for the siting of 15 caravans.
The planning permission does not contain any conditions restricting the use/occupancy of the units or the length or type of stay.
The site has been partially developed in respect of the 15 pitches, although further landscaping and infrastructure works are required in order to complete the proposed residential park home estate. The development will benefit from having an extremely low pitch density and also has a pond feature, which will provide an attractive residential environment for residents to enjoy. The site is relatively flat.
In total the site extends to approximately 15.4 acres which provides the opportunity to significantly increase the number of pitches in the future, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
Site 2 – Adjacent Holiday Park Development Site
The site was granted planning permission in 2021 for the siting of 22 holiday caravans.
The site extends to approximately 25.69 acres and lies to the south of site 1 separated by the B1203. It is currently undeveloped.
Poplar Farm Retreat is situated in a rural location off Rasen Road, approximately a mile north east of the
market town of Market Rasen. The historic city of Lincoln is located approximately 18 miles to the south west.
The picturesque village of Tealby is located close by, to the east, approximately 2.5 miles distance and situated
on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds. Classed as an Area of Outstanding Beauty, with nearly 600 people
living in the conservation area, it attracts many visitors with its picturesque houses, walks, views and local
businesses. Tealby supports a vibrant community with an active church, school, community-run shop, two pubs, a tearoom and many local businesses all benefiting from the influx of visitors, walkers, and cyclists who regularly stop off to enjoy what the village has to offer.
Overall, the sites benefit from picturesque rural outlooks over open countryside, rolling hillsides and woodland
to some aspects. In addition, the sites are situated immediately adjacent to the popular ‘Wolds Edge’ farm
shop, craft butchery and deli with an in-house café, which provides near on-site amenity to future residents.
Site 1 – Poplar Farm Retreat
The planning permission granted allows a purchaser to continue the development of a residential park home estate and benefit from all 15 opportunities to sell a park home to a residential homeowner. Given the picturesque location, combined with the desirable nature of Tealby and Market Rasen, we would expect good residential demand for the scheme once completed.
Some of the groundworks have already been completed and the planning permission has been validated allowing a purchaser to take advantage of a recovering residential market.
Site 2 – Adjacent Holiday Park
The planning permission granted allows a purchaser to develop a holiday park from scratch, potentially complimented by the residential park home estate (to be developed on Site 1).
The site benefits from a Certificate of Lawful Use or Development (dated July 2025 in respect of planning application no. WL/2024/01005 ) which relates to ‘Confirmation of the material commencement of 142675 including excavation, ground works and the relaying of 100 meters of access driveway including groundworks for the clearing and maintenance of the drainage lake.’
The development of both sites together provides an exposure to both the holiday and residential park sectors, offering a unique, attractive proposition.
