It's on, what is for the Broads, a hill (gentle slope) overlooking the river! That aside I don't blame the BA for treading cautiously on this one but if it's an implicit 'No' at this stage then I think that that is premature. I also think that there are enough folk on this planet that simply want a razz-matazz free holiday, maybe a short walk to the pub of an evening, a spot of fishing and a river bank to sit on and meditate, for a small glamping site besides the river to be very popular. Visual impact I don't mind, unless its unsightly. Call an area a national park, whether it is one or not, in order to attract visitors means that the Broads must be able to cope with the subsequent demands, the Authority can't have it both ways. Me thinks an open minded approach is called for on this one, just as it is for Jenner's Basin at Thorpe. Maybe thats the problem jenny , like you just said , waveney is on a gentle hill , whereas the horizon yard is all flat from what i remember & flooded a few times , so would be no good for glamping .

JennyMorgan Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Thank you, Lori. I did wonder about flooding but assumed that the new owners would have checked before publicising their plans. Got to say that if they hadn't done such an obvious check then I do wonder about their plans overall. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But are we much wiser as to what really is happening at Acle? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springsong Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Just going back to those interior shots of the Hunsett building they to me look as dead as the outside. Not my cup of tea at all, but there again I am just a curmudgeonly old bu***r with evidently noooo taste. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Ricko Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 i should think that with the lack of curtains a blind man would be pleased to see it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would appear that it's 'one way' glass. A good camera with a powerful flash gun should sort that out though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springsong Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Kind of place a town planner would be at home in/with. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
