Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The appropriateness of the proposed development having regard to development plan policies governing tourist accommodation and the protection of the countryside

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with SAMDev policy MD11 criterion 8 which resists new holiday let development in the countryside outside settlement boundaries, and no material consideration is of sufficient weight to justify departure from development plan policy.
