Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the condition requiring no hot tubs to be installed is reasonable and necessary to safeguard the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers and the general public, having regard to noise and disturbance
- Whether the condition is reasonable and necessary to safeguard the living conditions of future occupiers of the property, having regard to overlooking and privacy
What decided it
The condition was not reasonable or necessary because noise and privacy impacts from a hot tub would not materially differ from those already inherent in the approved holiday accommodation use, and the site's location and topography would limit any adverse effects on neighbours.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy EQ6
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 135
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
