Heritage Tourism 2022: National Trust for Scotland

ALVA has released the data for visitor numbers for 2022. The top 10 most visited sites for the National Trust for Scotland attracted 1.9 million visitors: the same ten properties attracted 1.1 million visitors in 2021. This is only slightly down on the numbers for 2019, 2 million (although some visitor figures were not available for St Abbe’s Head for that year).

Data for the top 20 properties in 2022 show a slight increase from 2019.

Note that data prior to 2018 are not available for all the 10 / 20 properties and this has distorted the presentation.
