Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether this is an acceptable location for the development having regard to the site's accessibility and the effect on the character and appearance of its surroundings
  • The effect on the living conditions of nearby uses with particular reference to noise and disturbance

What decided it

CLP Policy 5 specifically permits tourism development in countryside locations where it is of appropriate scale and provides balanced benefits, and the evidence demonstrated this modest water slide operation met those criteria with very limited visual and noise impacts.

Framework references: 89

Plan policies cited: Policy C1, Policy C2, Policy C3, Policy 27, Policy 53, Policy 5, Policy 12, Policy 16, saved policy ENV1, Policy C1, Policy T1
