16 Holiday Cabins Approved At Committee

Vincent & Brown's proposals to change the use of equestrian land near Sheriff Hutton, to site 16 holiday cabins were taken to planning committee last week and we are pleased to report that it was given the Green light by councillors.

In response to the increase in popularity of staycations our client had a vision to turn under utilised land into a high quality, rural, holiday destination. The plans allow for 16 holiday cabins, a wardens lodge and a play area. An attenuation pond will be formed at the lowest point of the site for drainage but will also create a feature point within the site.

The area is perfect for holiday lets, providing a beautiful setting for a quiet countryside getaway outside the city. And only a few minutes from drive from Castle Howard, Eden Camp and Malton, Yorkshire's award winning food town.

The site itself is set behind high hedges and tree coverage providing privacy for both the holiday cabins and the village residents.

Three typical units will be constructed across the site, using high quality and sustainable materials that will work with the natural lay of the land. Each unit is built of timber stilts to retain and make a feature of the historical ridge & furrow topography present on site. This also removes the need for heavy excavation and foundation works.
