Glamping sites accused of pricing tent campers out of Yorkshire Dales

Planning committee says sites have become more like holiday parks as operators exploit UK holiday boom

John Amsden, the chair of Richmondshire district council’s planning committee, said they were popping up all over the Dales and there was little that could be done to stop them.
