Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether condition 2 restricting use to holiday accommodation with specified day limits and guest data requirements is reasonable and necessary

What decided it

The one-week occupation limit imposed by the original condition lacked specific justification and was disproportionate to the legitimate needs of holiday guests, whereas a 28-day annual limit would allow longer individual stays while maintaining adequate control over holiday use.
