Simon Cruickshank, owner of Sveinns vineyard in Swainsthorpe, has been told by planning officials he cannot erect a new building to sell farm produce because his land is already being used as a camping site.

To support his business, Mr Cruickshank permits five caravans to stay on a site behind the SugarBeat Eating House, which is named Vine View camping.

Despite this, he argues the use of the land has not officially changed, and had hoped to build a shop on part of the site for villagers to buy fresh produce.
