Land for sale

Pentood Uchaf, Cardigan, Ceredigion, Ceredigion SA43

Being situated adjoining both the A487 Trunk Road and also the A478 Cardigan to Tenby road, this area of potential building land is ideally placed to take full advantage of the passing heavy traffic flow. The A487 is the main road leading to the Ferry Terminus in Fishguard – being approximately 19 miles distance, which runs a frequent service to Southern Ireland.

Whilst the land does not have planning consent, a positive response was received to a pre-application submission made to Ceredigion County Council’ Planning Department – reference Q170013, dated the 2nd May 2017, to the possibility of obtaining consent on the land for the Erection of a restaurant and serviced accommodation. More recent advice has been received from the same Department in August 2023, stating that as the ldp has not changed since 2017 little will have changed from a local planning perspective. There have been however changes in ecology, phosphates, flood risk and potential purchasers are encouraged to discuss their proposals with Ceredigion County Council from the outset. Please see the below extract taken from the pre-planning advice letter. Copies are available at the agents offices.

…"from the policies quoted above, it is likely that the development of serviced accommodation at this location is likely to be supported in principle and in land-use planning terms. The site is located immediately adjacent to the Urban Service Centre, close to major transport routes and within reasonable proximity to the services and infrastructure available in ·the town centre.

Additionally, the ldp recognises that Ceredigion has a limited number of hotel, guest house, bed and breakfast and hostel bed spaces and the development of new serviced accommodation within the County is therefore to be encouraged in principle.

In relation to the restaurant, I am unclear as to whether this would only be used incidentally to the proposed accommodation, or whether it will also be open to the public in general (who are not staying at the accommodation). A completely incidental restaurant use is unlikely to raise any policy objections. However, should it be proposed that the restaurant is open to the general public, then policy LU18 requires consideration to be given to the likely impact of the development on existing retail provision within the Service Centre. The findings should be presented as part of the planning application, for consideration by the Local Planning Authority"

Directions. From Cardigan Town Centre, proceed in a southerly direction over the river bridge, along the by pass - to the roundabout and the land will be found directly in front of you.
