Description

The National Forest Company (NFC) looking to engage consultancy to provide advisory visits and follow up consultancy support to National Forest landowners and operators looking to develop new sustainable tourism accommodation. The offer of consultancy support will primarily target new entrants to the market who are looking to develop new or retrofit sustainable tourism accommodation in accordance with the design principles outlined in a new National Forest Sustainable Tourism Design Guide, which will be launched later this year. This will include woodland owners and landowners in the National Forest, plus individuals looking to establish new serviced and non-serviced tourist accommodation including bed & breakfast and self-catering. The overall aim of the consultancy support programme is to support innovative ideas and new ventures at an early stage to help facilitate a pipeline of new sustainable tourism accommodation development that demonstrate the Design Guide principles and supports delivery of the National Forest 25-year Vision and the National Forest brand. The objectives of the programme are: • To broaden the offer and increase the supply of sustainable tourism accommodation within the National Forest which will meet demand identified through recent studies and unlock the potential supply identified through our engagement work. • To support landowners to further develop their ideas and plans to develop new sustainable tourism accommodation, either through new construction, glamping, or renovation of redundant buildings. • To promote the economic, social, and environmental benefits of the Design Guide to landowners, and support them to demonstrate the principles of the guide within their development plans. • To work with landowners to strengthen their business plans and increase the viability of the development in preparation for submitting planning applications.
