It's all go for holiday plan

A HOLIDAY development featuring cottages and a coffee shop set to be created on a Lothian farm has been given planning permission by council chiefs.

The plans called for seven single holiday collages to be built on Soutra Mains Farm near Pathhead in Midlothian.

A coffee shop, as well as an access road and parking, were also part of the proposals, which were first put forward in March 2008. Permission was granted by Midlothian Council following a recent meeting.
