Strategic Policy 8
Tourist development proposals will generally be permitted where they make use of existing built fabric of interest and quality, where they do not affect adversely environmental, agricultural, or highway interests and where they enable enjoyment of our natural and manmade attractions. The officer assessed the proposal uses an existing recently constructed dwelling with no physical changes, no adverse impacts identified, and good proximity to the House of Manannan museum.
Business Policy 11
Tourism development must be in accordance with sustainable development objectives; policies protecting countryside apply equally. The officer noted this supports rural building reuse for tourism under Environment Policy 16, but the urban site context made it applicable as general tourism guidance.
Business Policy 13
Permission will generally be given for the use of private residential properties as tourist accommodation providing that it can be demonstrated that such use would not compromise the amenities of neighbouring residents. The officer directly applied this, concluding no adverse impact on adjacent properties due to similar occupation patterns and busy location.
