Holiday Park Plan Rejection

There have been plans to build a hotel and dozens of chalets at a countryside park near Preston. Proposals where put forward for a total of 61 holiday cabins and a 66 bedroom hotel at the start of the year. These plans are set to be knocked back after planners recommended the idea be rejected due to its size and its central location in a green belt area.

A letter to planners from Coun Julie Winstanley said: "The parish council feels that the development would be over - intensive and is not appropriate for open countryside.

"Also, traffic would be excessive on an already dangerous road where there have been fatalities in the past.''
