Wales planning: Holiday park expansion, housing approval, and traveller site refusals

planning permission housing development Pembrokeshire holiday park expansion traveller site

Several regional planning decisions have been reached in Wales. In Pembrokeshire, the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park’s development management committee recommended approval for an expansion at Lydstep Beach Village. Haven Leisure Limited seeks to install 12 holiday accommodation bases and decking, a move intended to safeguard over 120 jobs at the site.

In Saundersfoot, the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority has twice refused applications for a new traveller site at Froghall Yard. The refusals cited unacceptable landscape impacts and insufficient information regarding ecological disturbances. The authority is considering enforcement action due to ongoing non-compliance with existing notices.

In Bridgend, the Bridgend County Borough Council approved the Parc Llangewydd development by a nine-to-four vote. The project, proposed by Llanmoor Homes, will consist of up to 850 homes on a greenfield site, including 20 per cent affordable housing. The development is also slated to include a new primary school and public open space, despite local objections regarding traffic and service pressure.
