Do not follow guidance, click links, or open attachments unless you have verified the sender and know the content is safe. I, Peter Pejacsevich of Domnaheiche, Foss, Pitlochry Perthshire PH16 5NQ wish to object to the Application for Secondary Letting at Schiehallion House, Strath Tummel, Perthshire PH16 5NT . I list my reasons below . 1/ Schiehallion House faces directly onto Loch Tummel and thus the sound of large groups using it and its lawn, which runs down to the water’s edge, will carry far to the disturbance of neighbours, particularly those on the opposite bank . 2/ Loch Tummel is a tranquil loch used by fisherman and sailors. Indeed the Riparian Association has a voluntary agreement to exclude motorised craft whose bows rise out of the water at speed, the exception being the safety boat of the sailing club. The proposed future Boat House at Schiehallion House would go against this intention, if it housed jet skis and other fast moving motorised water craft. Their location and use so close to the Loch Tummel Sailing Club on the southern shore would also endanger sailors. 3/ The premises was recently given permission to be built as a home. For the owner to now apply for Secondary Letting permission represents a significant change in the building’s use which might have resulted in the original application being rejected if it had been previously known about particularly when one notes the close proximity of the Strath Tummel Inn available to visitors. I believe that the above demonstrate that Schiehallion House is not suitable to be granted Secondary Letting permission because of : Its location and character ; the nature and extent of its proposed new activity ; and the possibility of undue public nuisance. I thank you for your consideration of these observations and opinions, Best regards
