Static caravans refused at popular Welsh holiday park
Original source: Yahoo News

An application to replace touring caravans with static ones at Park Farm Holiday Park in Manorbier, Pembrokeshire, without a formal planning application was rejected by the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park authority. The applicant sought a lawful development certificate, but the officer report concluded the change would constitute a material change of use requiring specific planning permission. No specific number of caravans was proposed, though the total was expected to decrease due to larger static units.

Pembrokeshire caravan site seeks approval for static caravans in National Park

Keith Stevens of Tudor Glen Caravan Park, Jameston, has applied to Pembrokeshire Coast National Park for a certificate of lawfulness to confirm that a 1988 planning permission allows static caravans, not just touring ones. The applicant argues the original consent for up to 50 caravans does not specify type or require removal during close season. The six-acre park also accommodates motorhomes and tents.

1966 motorhome with Mini garage and recording studio

In 1966, British coachbuilder Harold Radford Coachbuilders built the Transcontinental Carabus Mk2 motorhome for steel magnate Philip Lee, based on an AEC Reliance bus. The 11-metre vehicle featured a hydraulic lift for a Mini Cooper S, a recording studio, two toilets, a roof-access lift, and a kitchen with a dishwasher.
