Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would amount to a new or expanded tourism use, and if so whether it would be acceptable in terms of its location in the countryside, and viable in the long term
  • the effect of stationing a mix of caravan types on the site, most of which would remain on the site all year round, and opening the site for 11 months each year, on the character and appearance of the countryside

What decided it

The Inspector concluded that the expanded and extended caravan park use would accord with the development plan as a whole, causing no harm to the character and appearance of the countryside once subject to appropriate conditions.

the proposal accorded with the development plan as a whole and there were no other material considerations, including the Framework, indicating a decision should be taken otherwise, so the appeal was allowed
