    That sounds amazing, Watty, such good ideas.  And really good to take your time thinking about each consultant too, going for feedback and analysing it in the light of what you know and in terms of your history and your knowledge of this area of the law.  This is going to be great!
    Spot on with these comments. You can set out in the plan that the barn accommodation will remain within the curtilage of your property and be classed as an annex (ie, not legally a separate property and not for separate sale)

    makes perfect sense.   After all, plans change so what you originally intended as a holiday let could temporarily be used for you whilst freeing up bigger accommodation for letting over the summer.   Completely unforseen at point of creating the little holiday let.  Then you find it suits you better so you just stay.  😀

  • This sounds like a great plan ! Lots of work especially with planning but you have the time and if it helps with the retirement plan then definitely worth it

    DON'T BUY STUFF (from Frugalwoods)
    No seriously, just don’t buy things. 99% of our success with our savings rate is attributed to the fact that we don’t buy things... You can and should take advantage of discounts.... But at the end of the day, the only way to truly save money is to not buy stuff.    Money doesn’t walk out of your wallet on its own accord.

  • Just catching up with your diary. That seems a great plan to move into the barn conversion… it gives you a fresh new home, free from memories, that you can  start a new chapter in, while remaining close to the stables.
