Outline consent for 39 holiday lodge bases near Newquay—large plot, conversion potential.
Approx 4.5 acre site with huge development potential
A rare development opportunity on approximately 4.5 acres just outside Newquay, The Mawes combines an existing four-bedroom detached house with outline planning consent for up to 39 holiday lodge bases (PA23/09909). The site sits in open countryside yet is within four miles of Newquay’s beaches and airport, giving strong year-round tourist appeal and good road links to the A30/A39.
The existing two-storey house provides reception space, conservatory, kitchen/dining, utility, one ground-floor bedroom and three first-floor bedrooms — suitable for conversion into a reception and manager’s accommodation as envisaged by the consent. Grounds include large fenced pasture, parking, garage and a stream-side boundary, offering flexible layouts for lodge positioning, access and landscaping.
Planning is a key value driver: outline consent covers reception/manager’s accommodation plus infrastructure including a pumping station and parking. There is also separate consent for new offices and a workshop (PA20/05760). Services include mains electricity, mains water, LPG central heating and ultrafast broadband; current drainage is private but can be updated under the planning proposals.
Notable practical points are stated plainly: the former holiday chalets have been removed and the site will require completion of detailed (reserved matters) applications, infrastructure build-out and likely drainage upgrades. Mobile indoor reception is limited. Council tax band E and private drainage to the current house may add short-term operational costs. This parcel suits an experienced developer or investor seeking a coastal holiday-lodge scheme with planning in place and substantial scope to add value.
