Tourism is an important
industry for creating economic growth in rural areas. Being home to two UNESCO World heritage sites
and many other tourism sites of national importance, Wiltshire has grown in
recent years as a popular tourist destination.
However, supply has not kept up with demand and there is a significant
shortage of rural tourism accommodation.
This event will provide practical and professional advice about creating
and managing camping, Glamping and caravan sites as well as providing bed and
breakfast accommodation. Whether you are
thinking of starting a business or looking to expand, our speakers can offer
expert advice and experience of doing just that.
