Three steps to your first booking

Simple, private and entirely on your schedule.

1

List your field for free

Add your field with a few photos, a rough size and the days you might open up. Takes under 10 minutes, and you can list as many fields or plots as you like.

2

Approve who visits

Requests come to you. Accept or decline each one, so you decide who comes onto your land and when. Every visitor is identity-checked.

3

Get paid

Payment is handled securely and lands with you after each visit. No invoicing, no chasing, no admin.

What could your field earn?

How much can you earn renting out a field?

The history of your land is the biggest factor. Basic ground earns a modest day rate, but documented Roman, Anglo-Saxon or Viking activity sends it far higher. Set your land below and watch the numbers move.

Who pays to visit? A growing community of UK metal detectorists book legal access to private land, and they pay a premium for fields with real history. That demand is what sits behind the numbers below.

Illustrative estimate only, not a guarantee. Day rates reflect the platform's typical range (around £15 for basic land up to £95 per visitor for history-rich sites), with visitor numbers scaled to field size. You set your own rate and choose your own days, and actual earnings depend on demand, location and how often you open up.

A landowner story

From empty between events to fully booked

Steve has 15.7 acres in the South East. For years it hosted the odd festival, then sat empty the rest of the time. When he listed it on FieldFinders, he started opening up the quiet days to small groups of paying visitors, 10 to 20 a day, each paying between £10 and £100.

He now averages around £300 a day and hosts the occasional larger group event. Best of all, he still blocks out festival dates and any day he simply wants the place to himself, and the calendar is entirely his.

Illustrative example of what's possible with larger acreage. Earnings vary by field and how often you open it up.

Questions

Good to know

The biggest factor is your land’s history, alongside its size and how often you open it up. As an illustrative example, basic ground with no known history might earn around £100 to £200 a day, while land with documented Roman or Anglo-Saxon activity can command up to £1,000 a day. Opened regularly, that can work out to roughly £2,000 to £10,000+ a month. These are example figures, not a guarantee. You set your own rate and choose your own days.
