Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the appeal site would be in an appropriate location for the proposed development having particular regard to local and national policy
whether or not the proposed development would deliver biodiversity net gain

What decided it

The appeal site's location in open countryside remote from services, facilities and sustainable transport options, combined with the absence of substantive justification for the out-of-settlement location, conflicts with local plan policies directing tourism development to identified settlements and requiring demonstration that development cannot be located within or adjacent to the built form of settlements.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: Policy EG8Policy EG8(g)Policy EG8(h)Policy S3Policy S1Policy S5Policy IC2Policy E3
National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 84Paragraph 85
