Default Allotment question

Hi people


I'm not sure what to think of this... what would you make of it? An offer from a private landowner of an allotment, of size whatever I want upto 2.5x the standard old allotment size, or 5x the new half size plots. No water supply, price the same per given area as local council plots without water supply. Lenient terms when it comes to growing small trees and tidying up the grossly overgrown plot. No shed permitted but lockup tool stores ok. Access paths already in place. No restriction to just one plot as with the council. The biggest issues as I see it are that some of the land is steeply sloping, and I do mean steep, and probably only therefore fit for bushes and trees, plus the fact that its grossly overgrown, and will need a quantity of small trees cleared.

Feedback welcome

We don't have running water on our site. Some people brought water in
the car in cans until we got waterbutts on.

NO shed though so no waterbutts unless you can rig up a slopey
draining roof on a big compost bin.
