Bliss, 76, moved to Burton Agnes last year as she was attracted to the area’s “beautiful landscape”.
Speaking on behalf of campaign group Keep Wind Off Woldgate, she said: “None of us are against renewable energy but we did feel there were lots of reasons that this was the wrong place.
“It beggars belief that one would want to put large turbines in this area when it’s already been recognised as a significant landscape.”
She added that wind farms could instead be put in “remote areas where they’re not harming people or the landscape”.
Barker said: “There is an urgent need to accelerate the delivery of renewable energy infrastructure, and decisions such as this risk slowing progress towards a low-carbon energy system, greater energy security, and lower energy costs.”
He added: “We recognise that infrastructure projects can have local impacts, which must be carefully considered and balanced against the wider need for clean, secure, and affordable British energy.
“We will now carefully review the council’s decision and its reasons for refusal before determining our next steps.”
