Council planning record

Partial change of use of Tirylan House (aka Tirylan Farm) from only a residence to residence and retreat centre. The retreat centre will also include the converted barn (which already has planning permission as a holiday cottage) as an annexe. No additional building, extension or conversion beyond what has already been allowed is proposed. The retreat centre will operate as a community, so that retreatants will temporarily join the household rather than living in separate accommodation from the owners. The retreats will offer training in meditation, the arts and critical thinking. The house has 6 bedrooms, 4 of which would be used for retreat accommodation, together with the converted barn, resulting in no greater occupation than that already allowed for a residence and holiday cottage.
