Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether the proposed outdoor amenity space and outlook are appropriate, having regard to the functional requirements of the proposal

What decided it

The significant harm to the character and appearance of the area caused by the cramped, visually dominant development, combined with the failure to provide adequate outdoor amenity space and outlook appropriate to the proposed holiday use, outweighed the benefits of efficient land use and tourism provision.
