Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be a new dwelling in the open countryside
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and whether it would conserve or enhance the landscape and scenic beauty of the Cornwall National Landscape
  • Whether the proposed development would accord with planning policies concerning sustainable energy and construction

What decided it

The significant and long-lasting harm to the Cornwall National Landscape through unacceptable impacts on character, appearance and scenic beauty, combined with the principle of development as a new dwelling in the open countryside without special circumstances, outweighed the moderate positive benefits of the scheme.
