Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the proposal on the character and visual appearance of the local landscape
  • The effect of the proposal on highway safety

What decided it

The proposal would harm the character and visual appearance of the local landscape through its cumulative effect with existing holiday park developments in the locality, and this harm was not outweighed by the limited economic and biodiversity benefits of the scheme.
