Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the site is a suitable location for the proposed development, having regard to the development strategy for the area

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with Policy EC11 of the Local Plan as it fails to meet the criteria for supporting self-catering accommodation in the countryside, and the economic benefits do not outweigh this development plan conflict.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy EC11
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 88

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.
