Integrated Rural Tourism and Recreational Complexes

Proposals to develop low density residential developments for permanent accommodation or holiday home use removed from designated settlement centres were previously contrary to the policies of the Development Plan. However it was considered that the development of golf courses, hotels, race courses and other tourist developments/leisure facilities located in rural unzoned areas, which provide an important local/national amenity, may form the basis for justifying limited on-site residential development. To allow this, however, some of the policies as set out in the County Development Plan 2005-2011 had to be amended as follows in this document Integrated Rural Tourism and Recreational Complexes (word .doc, 880 kbs)  word.doc
