Abstract

This research explores recent, current and future challenges and opportunities facing accommodation businesses, a sector which has a vital role to play in the economic and social vibrancy of many rural and island communities across Scotland. The research provides a picture of the recent 'real life experiences' of these businesses in a period which has seen the UK leave the EU, the Covid-19 pandemic and the cost of living crisis, in addition to other legislative and policy developments.
