Class Q Permitted development in England and Scotland - barn conversions

Hi folks, so let me introduce ourselves, myself and Heather Nimmo live on our 8.5 acre off grid smallholding outside Portpatrick in Southwest Scotland.
Heather purchased the property in August 2011, 10 years ago as a derelict plot of scrub and trees with a small yard and some tumbled down stables.
Immediately a static caravan was sited on site and that’s where the story started. We follow so many stories and posts on Facebook of people saying it can’t be done, I’m not saying the journey has been easy but 10 years later we are here and happier than ever.
Just under a year ago we found out what TH-cam was, and we’ve started doing weekly blogs charting our progress.
We are now building our forever home, a cabin/bothy, we’ve built 3 barns and next year we are going to build a roundwood pole barn.
We have no mains services, we produce our own power from solar, with a battery bank and backup generator, rainwater harvesting, this year we are upgrading our systems and you’ll be able to follow it on our channel.
We’d really appreciate it if everyone could subscribe to our TH-cam channel, ring the bell for weekly notifications and like and share our videos. We also are on Facebook as “Lochnaw Smithy”
