In Brief

Pembrokeshire Coast development committee approved 12 new caravan bases at Lydstep Beach Village, raising capacity from 471 to 483, despite local council objections.

The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park development management committee has approved an application by Haven Leisure Limited for 12 additional caravans at Lydstep Beach Village. The expansion will increase the number of pitches from 471 to 483 and, according to the applicant, will help retain 123 jobs.

The project includes 11 units in the South of Pine Tree area and one in North of Haven Crest, along with associated infrastructure. Officials described the development as a modest infill within the existing park, not extending beyond its boundaries. Objections were raised by two community councils, and the proposal was noted to conflict with the local development plan.

Unpleasant smell affects Devon holiday park for years

Lady's Mile Holiday Park in Dawlish Warren, Devon, reports that intermittent sewage odors, lasting days, have driven some visitors to leave. Operations manager Stephen Brown says South West Water ignored complaints for five years. The utility attributes the smell to temporary works at Timaru Sewage Treatment Works and suggests it may originate from a private sewer network.

Couple lives in motorhome for 10 years, no plans to return to conventional life

Karen and Myles Davies from the village of Milverton have lived in a 7.5-meter motorhome named Scoobie for ten years, covering about 177,000 kilometers across 30 countries. Renting a house used to cost them over 1,550 euros per month, while their current living expenses, including fuel and food, range between 1,750 and 2,350 euros per month. The couple started their journey in 2016 as a year-long experiment, but after five weeks Karen said she did not want to go back. They earn income through investments, rental property, writing, and yoga teaching, and continue to pay taxes.
