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.
