Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the principle of the development is acceptable in this location
- the effect on the local environment with particular reference to noise and disturbance
- the effect on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The principle of the development is not acceptable in this location as it represents an unacceptable intensification of use in open countryside outside the settlement boundary, conflicting with development plan policies and causing significant harm to the local environment through noise and disturbance and to the character and appearance of the National Park landscape.
