Intend to put on a yurt and grow food and perhaps some kind of sustainability project eg courses etc.
Am looking for 1-3 acres
Not sure about budget, I guess around 10, 000

For that area of land you will get caught by the fact that the smaller the land area the higher the price per acre. Ag. land typically goes for about 3-5k per acre, but for 1-3 acres don't be surprised if its going for 10k+ per acre. Also if there is the slightest possibility of putting anything even as residential as a yurt there the price will promptly go up again.

I was told (by my local planning office) that if a building is there for more than three months it counts as a permanent structure and is bound by planning permission regulations. Dunno if you could get around it by moving the yurt by 20 feet or so every couple of months.
