Caravan site plan recommended for approval but condition limiting use sought
Original source: Watford Observer

Plans to expand a caravan site in Kings Langley, Hertfordshire, have been recommended for approval despite concerns over 'intensification of use'. The site behind Toms Lane, where five gypsy pitches were approved in May 2024, now proposes replacing one static and one touring caravan per pitch with two static caravans. Three Rivers District Council's planning committee will consider the change on July 16 after Abbots Langley Parish Council and three committee members raised concerns. Council officers recommend approval but with a condition that no more than five caravans be used for primary living accommodation, with the rest for ancillary facilities.

Bozcaada municipality begins demolition of illegal tiny houses

The municipality of Bozcaada, Turkey, has started demolishing illegally placed tiny houses on agricultural land. Owners have been sent notices, with fines and legal action to follow if structures are not removed within 30 days. The dispute dates back to 2021 when a court overturned a ban on their entry, classifying them as licensed vehicles.

Couple sells house to buy abandoned campsite in Wales

In June 2022, Jon and Emilie James sold their home for £132,000 and purchased a former miners' campsite in Llanelli, South Wales, abandoned since 1989. Over three years, they transformed the littered plot into an off-grid glamping site with a tiny house and sauna, spending £90,000 on the purchase and leaving £500 in their account. The couple lived without electricity and hot water, learning construction from YouTube tutorials. The project has attracted thousands of followers online.
