An extension to a holiday site in a village near Rhayader has been given the go ahead by Powys councillors.

The plans will see two one-bedroom units at land to the east of Garmon Newydd at Pant-y-Dŵr - five miles north of Rhayader and seven miles to the south east of Llanidloes.

The scheme includes a sewage treatment plant, building a games room, expansion of the access track and associated works.

St Harmon community council “strongly objected” to the plans saying it “represents a significant intensification of the scheme and raises concerns about incremental expansion.”

In March planning permission was given to a similar pair of units.

The scheme was approved unanimously by Powys County Council’s Planning committee on 8 July.
