Why We Work With Them

Planning risk is one of the biggest threats to any development, and it’s exactly the kind of problem our community can’t solve alone. JMS Planning earned its place in the HolidaymakerXP Community because they bring the technical rigour and commercial pragmatism that turns a planning application from a gamble into a manageable process.

Daniel and the team’s leisure sector experience across England, Wales and Scotland means they understand the specific planning challenges holiday parks face, from change of use and green belt constraints to seasonal occupancy conditions, rather than treating every project as a generic commercial application.

That early-warning, risk-first approach mirrors how we encourage our clients to plan investment: understand the constraints before you commit, then move with confidence. Having a trusted planning partner on hand means fewer surprises and a clearer path from site appraisal to planning permission.

For our community, that means a direct line to specialist planning advice, whether you’re assessing a potential acquisition, expanding an existing park, or navigating an enforcement issue, without having to start your search for the right consultant from scratch.
