If got wheels and can be moved dont think need planning !
when do you think you'll break even from ALL the investment on the shepherds huts?I charge £70/night,had this since April,been popular,need to get on all the glamping websites to get exposure,can do min 2 nights,has fitted in easier here as I also have recently opened a caravan site.

Can't second guess Council,Valuation Office or HMRC as to their veiws would or could be ???No. But if you're taking land out of agricultural use to house them then that would be a change of use for the land, would it not?
Please feel free to get in touch - www.sjmplanning.com or drop me a PM on hereI am looking in to shepherds huts, we have the location, space, views etc, am in the process of costing it out, planning seems to be an issue, some say gray area, some say you need it, my gut tells me I need it. What sort of planning consultant do I need for the job?
The lady said that she was planning using composting toilets and solar power she can move them a few meters once they start enforcement action and they have to start again.I admit that this will not make you popular with the planners but i believe she is trying to build a business so needs must and there is little they can do (Scotland anyway) also if huts are sited to the side of the track there will be no need to put in hard standing as the road will serve the hard standing.Correct, but only 3 touring caravans, shepherds huts or Pods are allowed under permitted development rights, and that's assuming your PD Rights have not been removed and you are not in a National Park or AONB or other classified area etc.
plus even if you still have the PD Rights, the units have to be removed off the site after the 28 days otherwise they are classed as static caravans in planning terms and thus still require PP. Also more than 3 and / or in excess of 28 days still requires PP
Thank you,will break even on it after 2 years,also have a pod which is popular,that has a toilet,shower and kitchen,trying to aim at the higher end of glampingwhen do you think you'll break even from ALL the investment on the shepherds huts?
To be fair you have a cracking set up already, very smart FLAT farm. Well done fresh website too.
Def need planning for pods hereFor planning purposes glamping pods are classed as caravans,also if your running a 28site you wouldn't need planning.
