Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of the future occupiers of the proposed dwelling with regards to outlook and privacy
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring dwellings with regards to outlook and privacy
  • the designated sites - Exe Estuary Special Protection Area (SPA) and Ramsar site and Dawlish Warren Special Area of Conservation (SAC)

What decided it

The proposed dwelling's design, scale, materials and positioning would be consistent with the character of the area and would not cause material harm to the living conditions of neighbouring or future occupiers, and the designated sites would be adequately protected through the payment of the habitat mitigation contribution.
