if you can lay on water that
would make them far more attractive.


Can do, It comes from a well and is free apart from the cost of leccy

needed
to run the pump...which could be taken into account when working out the
rent.


Depending on the capacity of your private water system, there's a risk
that a hosepipe left running could deprive you of your own domestic
supply.(Have had this happen to us).


Will keep an eye to that, we do have access to an unlimited amount of the
large 100ltr blue barrells, perhaps it'd be more worthwhile supplying each
plot with a few of those?

I may even consider
putting in sheds myself, would have to look at the cost.


And the return; how much rent do you envisage people will pay ?

Don't know yet, just trying to get a handle on what'd be a fair and
reasonable rent to ask. Wouldn't be a huge amount though.


You might also need to find out whether your domestic public liability
insurance covers paying tenants.


Looking into that this week
