In England you would read the Local Development Framework, have a chat with a planning officer and look at what has been granted and denied permission in the area. Still a gamble until you try and I've seen people get it wrong which must smart a bit.

In England you can apply for pre-application advice from the local planning officers. You put together a proposal of what you want to build, pop them a few quid, and they give you an idea of whether you'll get consent or what tweaks might be needed to the design. No idea if there's a similar system north of the border though.

Buying land and building on it. How can one find out in principle if planning permission would be granted - does it vary with local authority? (In Scotland)
