Glamping Pre-Planning Permission Application
The box we have to tick when planning a successful glamping site.
The smart start to your glamping planning permission journey
Glamping Pre-Planning Permission Application
This tends to be the smartest way to start your glamping journey. Glamping Pre-Planning is essentially a package with one or two drawings of your potential site and a supporting document that is submitted to your local council. They do not approve or reject at this stage, they simply advise.
The council will advise on around 15 different points, some of the most important are drainage, road planning and noise control. They will then conclude on whether or not you are likely to be successful should you proceed to a full glamping planning permission submission
This advice will shape your full planning application and therefore site, to give you the best chance of achieving planning permission.
The Smart Start to Your Glamping Planning Permission Journey
Every local council planning department is different. Yes I know you think your local planning department is the worst, but it’s probably not. Every client we’ve ever had thinks their local council is the ‘worst’.
In our experience, none of them are all that bad. Then again, maybe that’s just because we speak nicely to them.
One thing we have definitely found is that a pre-planning application is a bit like speaking nicely to planning. It’s human nature, if someone asks for help and advice about something, the person they act will look kindly on their idea. Thus, when you submit a pre-planning application, then adhere to the advice within it, you are a lot more likely to achieve full planning than if you jump straight in.
