PROPOSALS for a riverside ‘glamping’ site offering hot tubs and fishing activities for visitors in County Durham have been approved.
Last year, a planning application was lodged with Durham County Council to erect six glamping pods in the Shotley Grove area, near Consett.
The structures were planned for a parcel of land to the south of Shotley Grove Road, next to the River Derwent.
According to a design and access statement from the applicant, the glamping pods would be of “modest, modern design with materials in keeping with the site’s setting”.
