Applicant Cameron Shell, in a planning report, noted the seasonal nature of the business and said the site would hold only temporary caravan and motorhome accommodation.
Ingram Parish Council offered no objection but called for adequate screening hide it not just from the farmhouse but from the road at the entrance of the National Park.
Jon Sharp, senior planning officer, reported: “The proposal represents an appropriate form of development that would not have a significant adverse impact on the appearance of the site, the street scene, the amenity of nearby residents or highway safety.”
