Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed replacement chalet on the character and appearance of this part of Gwithian Towans
  • the effect on the living conditions for the occupiers of neighbouring properties as regards privacy

What decided it

The proposed chalet's substantial increase in scale and height, combined with its forward siting and design, would be obtrusive and harmful to the character and appearance of the immediate setting, and the extensive glazing would unacceptably compromise the privacy of neighbouring occupiers.
