Redevelopment Of Protected Site To Proceed
The plan to redevelop a protected structure and its grounds into a wedding venue and glamour camping or “glamping” park will now go ahead following the withdrawal of an appeal to An Bord Pleanála.
Last year Kerry county councillors unanimously backed hotelier and At Your Service presenter John Brennan’s proposed development of a camping park in woodland alongside a sensitive coastline in the grounds of a protected 19th-century manor house at Dromquinna near Kenmare
However, Patrick Henderson of Faha had appealed the council’s grant of permission over worries about the impact on the curtilage, walled garden and boundary walls of the Victorian manor.
The objection has since been withdrawn and the redevelopment will proceed as planned.
