Are there special planning permission rules applying where one wants

have a small-holding in an area where adding new houses is basically
not allowed but a few people have added houses for family members
and/or workers.

We are thinking about (well, our child is thinking about) building a
house adjacent to ours, space isn't an issue, we have around 9 acres
and some is fairly lightly used at the moment. We are on a private
road, services (water, electricity, drainage) are close.

So, can one get permission to build a house for family where one maybe
couldn't get permission for just 'a house'?

You've had most of the answers already.
If you are a farmer and your child is taking over the farm you might
get permission to build a house, but it will carry an 'agricultural tie'.

If your local authority does not have a five-year housing supply in its
local plan and you can show development on the site is 'sustainable' the
planning authority may give in rather than risk an appeal.
