Planning Support for Rural Tourism, Glamping, and Leisure Projects

Seed Architecture and Planning Limited

Unlock the Potential of Your Land

Tourism and leisure development is one of the most effective ways to diversify rural land use and generate sustainable income. Whether you're considering a small glamping site, a holiday park, or a larger tourism enterprise, our team helps you navigate planning, licensing, and site design with confidence.

We support landowners, estate managers, and rural businesses across Norfolk, East Anglia, and beyond, including sites within sensitive and protected landscapes such as the Norfolk Broads, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), and Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). While we are actively building our portfolio in these areas, we bring an understanding of the policy frameworks and environmental constraints that apply, particularly in rural and designated contexts.

What We Do

• Feasibility Assessments – Assess land suitability, access, and planning constraints

• Planning Applications – Full applications, change of use, and Certificates of Lawfulness

• Licensing Strategy – Advice on temporary or licensed tourism use vs full planning

• Tourism Site Design – Layout plans for glamping pods, lodges, and supporting facilities

• Business Case & Supporting Documents – Design & Access Statements, business rationale, and local policy alignment

• Post-Consent Services – Discharge of conditions, amendments, and site development advice

Types of Projects We Support

• Glamping sites and shepherd’s huts

• Lodge parks and holiday cabins

• Caravan and camping grounds

• Activity centres and rural retreats

• Farm-based accommodation and café facilities

• Mixed-use tourism and leisure sites
