Selected

una pequeña parcela

Se refiere a un pequeño terreno cultivable, donde tiene incluso espacio para poner su caravana, así que debería ser más explícito el hecho de que es un espacio (en el caso de "propiedad" no queda nada claro).

A smallholding is a farm of small size.

Según la definición me parece que hay que aclarar que tipo de terreno es.
Wikipedia
A smallholding is a farm of small size.

In third world countries, smallholdings are usually farms supporting a single family with a mixture of cash crops and subsistence farming. As a country becomes more affluent and farming practices become more efficient, smallholdings may persist as a legacy of historical land ownership practices[dubious – discuss]. In more affluent societies smallholdings may be valued primarily for the rural lifestyle that they provide. Often, the owners do not earn their livelihood from the farm
