The proposal would introduce a level and form of commercial tourist activity which would be inappropriate within the domestic curtilage of an existing private dwelling, and owing to its siting along the shared boundary, would give rise to an intensification of activity on the site likely to cause additional noise and disturbance to the occupiers of the neighbouring property than would be generated from private domestic use, contrary to North York Moors Local Plan Policy UE4 (New Holiday Accommodation Within Residential Curtilages)which only permits new holiday accommodation within residential curtilages where there would be no harm in terms of noise an d activity on the amenity of the neighbourhood. Furthermore, proposal does not provide for a small camping or glamping unit as required by Policy UE4 and instead relates to the retention of a sizeable timber cabin for holiday letting purposes, which is not of a character or appearance worthy of retention sufficient to override detrimental impact on neighbouring residential amenity.
The proposal would utilise the location of the previously approved garage and stable building, potentially leading to pressure for additional structures for domestic garaging and storage within the curtilage, which due to the open nature of the site would be visually intrusive, detrimental to the character of the area and contrary to policy CO17 (Householder Development) of the North York Moors Local Plan which requires that the change of use of existing outbuildings should not lead to future proposals for additional outbuildings.
