Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be a suitable location for tourist accommodation with regard to local development plan policies
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of the proposed dwelling and nearby occupiers with regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with Policy V5 of the Oxford Local Plan, which restricts holiday lets to specified arterial roads, and Marsh Lane is not identified as a suitable location for such accommodation.
Plan policies cited: Policy V5, Policy DH1, Policy H16, Policy RE7, Policy RE8
