Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal site provides a suitable location for the development, with regard to the Council's spatial strategy, the provision of tourism accommodation and the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the development on highway safety
What decided it
The development fails to comply with the development plan policies governing countryside tourism development and highway safety, and the identified harm to rural character and highway safety cannot be outweighed by the modest economic benefits.
