Summary

The applicant is proposing to convert existing farm buildings at Pistyll Farm into holiday accommodation. No new buildings are proposed; the work would reuse structures already on the site.

The farm already has several other businesses on the same site, including a motor parts company, an events firm, and a children's nursery. Some neighbouring buildings sit only about 13 metres away, to the south-west and west. The Afon Terrig river passes a few minutes' walk from the site.

Because the site already hosts a mix of activity, adding holiday accommodation could mean more comings and goings for nearby properties. The site also has a higher-than-usual radon reading, which matters because the buildings would gain new rooms for people to stay in overnight.
