About this document
Standard business lease with additions relevant to the rural character of let land and buildings. If the letting is for a substantially agricultural use, consider a farm business tenancy agreement. If you are not sure whether the tenant will or will not carry on a business, use this document.
This docuement is for:
• A potential landlord (owner of buildings such as stables, sheds or barns)
• Tenant (someone who wants to use buildings)
• For any non-agricultural use, like storage
Lease or licence?
Any licence is outside of the statutory landlord and tenant framework, but the agreement has to reflect the name. An agreement is not a “licence” just because of the title. The effect of a licence is:
• Tenants have no security
• Landlords need give no notice
