Hi,
Full private residence relief is available for the farmhouse and it's grounds up to the the permitted area of 0.5 hectare. Please see the guidance at
CG64350P for full details.
CG64350 - Private residence relief: garden and grounds
With reference to the annexes, any private residence relief due on the disposal of these will depend on the circumstances of the case. If these cottages were considered to be part of the main residence and grounds originally, some relief may be due for the period up to the date they were separated and used as furnished holiday lettings.
When considering the renovation costs for each of the cottages, some of these may be deductible as capital expenditure when the assets were transferred to the daughter. See CG15180.
CG15180 - Expenditure: enhancement expenditure
Note that if the expenditure took place before the holiday cottages were transferred to the daughter, this expenditure can only be claimed on any capital gain arising from this transfer. The enhanced value will already be reflected in the higher market value at the time of transfer and so no further relief will be due if the daughter later sells the properties.
Thank you.
