"Yes the plan is to stop it, don't want that anywhere near me."
You don't even know what the "it" is that you don't want anywhere near you.5 -

You moved into the area a year ago and now you want to stop your farming neighbours diversifying to something they can make a profit on. No wonder newcomers can get a name for themselves.3

I love the comments of here about how I'm being unreasonable.
The whole reason we moved here was to be in the quiet countryside. Our backgarden has a stunning view the last thing I want to see if any kind of campsite whatever 'it' is. And it isn't a farmer, they moved in a few month before us.
I wasn't asking for people views on what I should/shouldn't do, I was enquiring on what the procedure is and can I object to it.

You can object on the local planning portal but you will need to have a valid objection.
"I don't want it there" is not a valid reason I'm afraid.
What exactly is your objection?

Perhaps you should contact the local planning office to discuss exactly what is being proposed?All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.1 -

The only way to guarantee you can maintain a stunning view is to actually own that stunning view.....

JamesTo be fair James I'd get the place on the market a.s.p.I'm like you I'd bloody hate it. Not good if you are retiring there.

So you want the view of the land your neighbour is paying for/owns?
Unfortunately you don't own a vista. I understand it must be disheartening - we've bought a house with a view but it's a conservation area to limit things a bit.
you could offer to buy the land?
