H&H Land & Estates has moved its Land Agency team to new South Lakes offices in the pursuit of wider regional outreach.

As farming and rural property sectors face a constantly transforming national landscape, the firm's move signals its ongoing commitment to supporting these industries with a full suite of professional services.

Anchored in the Cumbria Tourism Business Centre in Staveley, a team of eight trained rural sector specialists will cover an extensive range of services.

This includes rural property sales and lettings counsel, RICS compliant property assessments and management of estates, environmental issues, and forestry planning.

The agency's move to this hub, located at the edge of the Lake District, provides an easy-to-reach base for clients.

Gill Haigh, the managing director of Cumbria Tourism, said: “Cumbria Tourism’s Staveley HQ is a thriving hub of different businesses and it’s fantastic to welcome H&H Land & Estates to our spacious offices.

Led by Director Mark Barrow and Rachel Bagshaw as Head of Land Agency (South Lakes), the firm plans to be at the forefront in advising the rural property sector across the South Lakes and into North Lancashire.

.Mr Barrow said: “We have a proactive and skilled team here at Staveley and I am absolutely delighted to be a part of it. As a company H&H Land & Estates have been advising land and property owners, farmers, and other rural businesses for decades, and in recent times the team has evolved and expanded to enable to offer clients specialist advice and services across every aspect of rural property related management.

“In the current climate of uncertainty, it has never been more important for farmers and landowners to seek the best advice on the potentials and pitfalls of the new grants and funding options becoming available.

"The landscape is changing dramatically, and the agri-sector at all levels is adjusting to a whole new approach centered around new targets such as nutrient neutrality and biodiversity net gain.

"Our combination of land management expertise and specialist environmental and arborist skills can play a key role in ensuring that our farmers and landowners understand the new landscape clearly, and can make the most of the new opportunities it offers them and their land and property assets.”
