Garrettstown Strand Coolbane Kinsale Co.Cork

What’s proposed

Permission for retention, modification and completion of a partially complete aparthotel which includes the construction of 20 hotel bedrooms, a bar, restaurant and 24 apartments [for short term letting] ranging in height from three to four storeys over basement. The application follows a number of similar planning permissions on site under planning reg. no’s. 18/6611, 02/2828, 04/9743, 08/7234 and 13/4486. The basement and steel super structure of the southern ‘apartment wing’ have been constructed with some modifications to the previously permitted design, the total area constructed constitutes 1,962.03m2. The proposed development is largely similar to that previously permitted with some simplifications to the elevations, replacement of permitted external stair and lift cores with internal cores, covered balcony projections to the front elevation, changes to the finished floor levels, floor heights, eaves heights and ridge heights and change to the building footprint [as a result of works completed to date]. The applicants are also applying for permission for the construction of necessary upgrades to current wastewater treatment system, 2 no. surface car parks [providing 58 no. spaces], drainage works, landscaping and boundary treatments, bin storage, pedestrian crossing, surface treatments and all ancillary site development works as well as signage to southern hotel elevation

Retention planning permission in Ireland — refused 27% of the time, against 7% for extensionsOne in six Dublin applications is for retention, and 27% of retention decisions in the two years to September 2026 were refusals. When you need it, the treble fee, the seven-year rule and the sale-time problem.
Hotel and aparthotel planning applications in Dublin — 253 files in three years, three-quarters of them in the city253 applications mentioning a hotel, aparthotel or hostel reached the Greater Dublin registers in 36 months, 141 granted and 35 refused. Dublin City holds 185 of them, and the live files are the big ones — a ten-year permission on the Citigroup building at North Wall Quay, a 188-bedroom hotel at Drogheda's IDA park, a nightclub on Dame Court turning into a 14-room boutique hotel. What the files are, where they are refused, and every recent one linked.
Planning application fees and costs in Ireland — €34 for an extension, €65 for a house, treble for retentionThe council fee is the smallest cost of a planning application. Schedule 9 fees for a house, an extension, retention and commercial floor space; the €20 observation, the €220 appeal, development contributions and what the drawings and notices cost.
Site notice planning rules — 22% of Dublin applications invalid, and the notice is the top cause2,539 of the 11,409 applications received by Dublin councils in the year to September 2026 were declared invalid; in South Dublin nearly half were for the site notice. What it must say, where it goes, when it turns yellow.
