Why it was refused

  1. The proposal has been determined in accordance with Section 192 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended). It is considered that the proposed use will likely give rise to important planning considerations and it is Authority's view that the existence of caravans and tents in the winter months and operation as a caravan and camping site during this period will have a detrimental impact on the amenity of the nearby houses including as a result of storm overflow; the visual landscape; could put a strain on the local welfare services by users of the caravan and camping site and may increase the amount of nutrients within the catchment which could lead to additional damaging effects to the SAC features. In addition, the Authority is of the view that the proposed use represents an intensification of the existing use to such a degree it brings about a definable change in the character of the use made of the land. The Authority has determined that the proposed use of the land as a caravan and camping site for holiday purposes for up to 10 months in any one year is development for which planning permission is required and therefore not lawful. fpenel Via ; National Park Authorised Officer
