Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the development, having regard to local and national policy
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants with regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The identified need for tourist accommodation in the district, combined with the functional necessity for glamping to be located in the countryside and the proposed Site Management Plan ensuring adequate control of noise and disturbance, justified allowing the appeal.

Framework references: 57

Plan policies cited: Spatial Policy 7, Core Policy 7, Core Policy 9, Core Policy 13, Policy DM5, Policy DM8
