Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the development is in a suitable location having regard to the relevant policies of the Cotswold District Local Plan 2018 and the National Planning Policy Framework
The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area including whether it would conserve or enhance the natural beauty of the Cotswold National Landscape Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

What decided it

The temporary 2-year nature of the development combined with its minor and localised visual impact on the AONB, together with the significant weight given to the business benefits for staff recruitment, justified granting permission despite conflict with Local Plan policies requiring permanent need for rural workers' accommodation.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: DS4H5EC3EN2EN4EN5
National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 84
