Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of nearby occupiers, with particular regard to noise, disturbance and loss of privacy
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, bearing in mind the sites location within the Coln St Aldwyns Conservation Area and the setting of nearby listed buildings
  • The effect of any cumulative increase in holiday accommodation at this location
  • Whether occupiers of the proposed unit would experience satisfactory living conditions, with particular regard to internal space provision and light

What decided it

The proposal would have unacceptable effects on the living conditions of the occupiers of Rosamundi due to increased noise, disturbance and loss of privacy from vehicle movements and parking activity adjacent to their side windows.
