Private dog walking fields

I have an area of land that my horses graze on - I want to hire out 5 of those acres for exclusive / private hire for dog walkers by the hour .
Fully enclosed - we are a registered small holding .
Do I need change of use / planning and what on earth does Sui Generis mean ?
I still want horses on part of it so don't want to change from agricultural ( which I'm guessing it is ) to recreational and then not be allowed to have them graze .
I do have PL insurance & am already HMRC reg .
Council won't give a difinative answer unless I submit a pre planning app at a cost of £100

Hello, I too would like to ask the same question as Buckeroos Girl as I am in a similar position. Can anyone advise please? Thank you

Going back to the OP’s statement on the fee for Pre-application advice. That is cheap and tbh, is the best and quickest way to obtain a definitive answer.

With agricultural land, there may be specific uses not permitted under the class. Unless this is in writing somewhere, your LPA would be the best people to advise.
