Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the development having regard to local policy and its effect on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
What decided it
The existence of a fallback position in the form of a certified campsite certificate allowing similar or greater use, combined with the site-specific context and the proposed development's assimilation with the rural character of the area, meant the appeal site was a suitable location that would not result in unacceptable harm to character and appearance.
