Emily Thearle of letting agent BCM said: “This is a rare opportunity for a farmer to secure a core holding with a decent house and buildings for a 15-year term, and we anticipate a high level of interest.

“The landlord is particularly committed to protecting and enhancing the environmental worth of the farm and will be obliging the tenant to enter into a Countryside Stewardship scheme or similar to help achieve that.”
