Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development is in an appropriate location having regard to national and local planning policies
What decided it
The development is not in an appropriate location as required by CS policies CS5 and CS16, being too distant from settlements with services and not linked to an established tourism enterprise, and the policy conflicts are not outweighed by the modest economic benefits.
