THE US firm developing Taymouth Castle into a luxury resort for the mega-rich has breached planning rules, The National can reveal.
It added: “If this application is approved without consideration of this information, an offence under the Wildlife and Countryside Act , as amended, may occur.” A spokesperson from PKC said they were aware of the “breach” and that a retrospective application was being considered.A spokesperson for the firm previously insisted that “every aspect of the Taymouth Estate is being designed in a way that restores and preserves the environment”.
A spokesperson for the PLT group, Rob Jamieson , said: “Somebody asked me on Sunday if I was looking forward to a rest in the coming months when the tourists are gone. No, I said, I'm looking forward to having more free time to monitor what DLC are up to, and trying to ensure they follow the rules and laws of Scotland as they trash the environment around Kenmore.
“Because without the public keeping a close eye, things like the freshwater pearl mussel beds, the magnificent woodland habitat, historic landmarks, and anything else that get in the way of DLC’s business model to maximise profit, these things will be lost to future generations.”A PKC spokesperson said: “Planning application 22/01882/FLL is under consideration at this time and the planning authority is aware of the works which have been undertaken which are a breach of planning control.
The firm currently owns Taymouth Castle estate, the neighbouring Glenlyon Estate, Moness Resort, Kenmore Hotel, Kenmore post office and shop, Taymouth Trading, Brae Cottages, Am Fasgadh and Gatehouse, Paper Boat, Police House, and the Boathouse cottages, among other properties.We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
