This application sought permission to change the use of a cottage at Ballakissack Farm, Little Mill Road, Onchan from tourist accommodation — as originally approved — to long-term residential letting. The cottage sits within a group of outbuildings on a farm holding. The Planning Committee considered two main issues: whether long-term residential letting was an appropriate use at this location, and how any future sub-division of the property could be managed. Both were resolved in favour of the proposal. Permission was granted on 1 September 2005, subject to three conditions. The officer had also recommended approval.
