An application has been submitted to extend the seasonal dates of the holiday period for a caravan park in Cromer. 

Mr Harris, who owns the Leakes Caravan Park in East Runton, submitted the application on May 13. 

The application proposes an amendment to a condition included in the original planning permission, which was granted in 1960. 

The condition stipulates that the use of the caravans for holiday purposes is set between March 20 and October 31 each year.

Mr Harris's amendment seeks to widen the dates to March 1 and November 30.

In the application, it was stated that the goal of the amendment is to reflect the changing attitudes towards staycations in the area. 

It goes on to state further that widening the "shoulder months has benefited the local economy, bringing in more revenue for shops, restaurants, recreational facilities, and jobs".
