Planning applications for holiday and residential parks
The success of your development project can depend on securing relevant planning approval, so it's important to get the right advice at the outset to minimise the risk of delays.
The application process includes submitting details and plans of the proposed development to the local planning authority, who then decide whether to grant or refuse permission. Some applications will be determined within eight weeks, while others may be more complex and take several months.
