Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the siting of the proposed lodges complies with Council policies regarding tourism and sustainable locations for development
  • the effect of the lodge development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • Whether the manufacturing processes are acceptable in terms being in a sustainable location and having regard to the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • the effect of the development on the living conditions of nearby residents, and users of the public footpath, having particular regard to noise and artificial light
  • whether temporary residential occupation of the site by the appellant is acceptable, having regard to construction work and site security
  • The legality / practicality of access arrangements for the site

What decided it

The absence of an essential need for the appellant to reside permanently or temporarily on site meant the residential element conflicted with Policy S4 and was refused, while the holiday and manufacturing uses were found acceptable subject to conditions.

The benefits and acceptability of the holiday lodge and manufacturing uses, secured and controlled by conditions, outweighed their limited conflicts with policy, whereas no material considerations justified departing from policy S4 to permit the temporary residential use, which was therefore refused.
