Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would accord with the leisure and business tourism strategy for new visitor accommodation
  • The effect of the proposal on the character of the area and the living conditions of nearby residents, with regards to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan's leisure and business tourism strategy by locating holiday accommodation outside designated areas, and causes demonstrable harm to neighbouring residents' living conditions through noise and disturbance, with no material considerations to override the development plan.
