Conditions / Refusal Reasons
The application site is located in an attractive area of countryside within the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The proposal represents an inappropriate form of development in this rural area that fails to respect the character and appearance of the site and its surroundings. Furthermore the development fails to conserve or protect the natural beauty and the special landscape qualities of the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. As such the development is contrary to Policies G2, G4, C1, C2, D1, and E5 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011 and guidance contained within Planning Policy Statement 7: 'Sustainable Development in Rural Areas'.
The application site is located in a relatively isolated position within the countryside, which is not well related to the surrounding settlement pattern, and therefore, the site is not in close proximity to existing services and facilities. As such the site is not easily accessible by other modes of transport other than the private car and the development is not sustainable in terms of its location. As a result the proposal fails to accord with Policies G3, E3 and T1 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011 and guidance contained within Planning Policy Guidance Note 1: 'Delivering Sustainable Development' and Planning Policy Guidance Note 7: 'Sustainable Development in Rural Areas'.
