In the rural area, new visitor accommodation will only be permitted if visitors don't need to use a car to get there. This is a strange decision, because few visitors go to Mallory Court by bus for a hotel stay for example or even just a meal. There is a bus occasionally along Harbury Lane so maybe that is alright and it complies, but if another were to be proposed elsewhere that in every other way was a good proposal, sensitively handled, would that be rejected because you could only get there by car? A taxi is not a private car and that can get there so would that qualify? The intention is to control inappropriate development. It needs criteria to do that not dictate how the visitor gets there.
