Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
  • Whether, given the open countryside location of the appeal site, the development proposed is supported by the development plan's spatial strategy
  • The effect of the development upon the character, appearance and setting of the Dyvels Hotel and upon the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposed structures constitute a modest extension to the building that does not result in disproportionate additions over and above the size of the original building, falling within the exception at NPPF paragraph 149(c) and therefore not constituting inappropriate development in the Green Belt.
