Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal represents a suitable location for tourist accommodation, having regard to i) the location strategy of the development plan ii) the accessibility of the site to local services and facilities; and iii) the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposal fails to meet the requirement in Policy SP15(3) for safe segregated pedestrian access to the settlement and would result in harm to landscape character, conflicting with the development plan taken as a whole.
The limited benefits of tourism provision and biodiversity gains do not outweigh the significant conflict with the development plan
