Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the location of the development is appropriate, having regard to the national and local planning policies on the location of tourist accommodation
  • whether the development would be likely to have a significant effect on the integrity of the New Forest European Sites comprising the SPA, SAC and Ramsar site, with particular regard to recreational activity
  • whether the development would be likely to have a significant effect on the integrity of the River Avon SAC, with particular regard to nutrient neutrality

What decided it

The development would result in an adverse effect on the integrity of the River Avon SAC through nutrient loading, with no secured mitigation package demonstrating nutrient neutrality, contrary to Policy ENV1 and the Habitat Regulations.
