Tough break I know...........

But look at the point Jim makes about being "voluntarily homeless".
Since the usual long-term farm tenancy automatically ceases in the
event
of bankrupty, and the house is part of the farm...
Which is why I said tough break.

The only way out would seem to be a move to rented accommodation and
voluntary redundancy with a short term future at the mercy of the
benefit system.

what voluntary redundancy? They are self employeed remember. if they are
lucky and the landlord wants rid of them he might buy them out (if he
gets offered development) but the best they can hope for is that he
waives delapidations

And, if you check out an AHA tenancy, some of the current "good ideas",
such as min-till, risk being considered dilapidations.
