Developer ordered to demolish €75m project

THE developer of a planned €75 million 120-bedroom hotel and 52 holiday homes in Cashel has been ordered to demolish the development because of an alleged breach of planning conditions.

The entire €75m project and 250 jobs are now under threat, according to developer Liam Campion.

South Tipperary County Council is seeking demolition of the holiday cottages because the houses are terraced rather than semi-detached, as well as being up to nine metres off the specifications in the original plans.
