It's important to know that the income we make from the places we let plays an essential role in
funding our conservation work. It protects nature, beauty and history for generations to come.
We're keen to build long-lasting tenant-landlord relationships that bring stability and longevity to
your plans and ours. We know that tenants have high expectations of their National Trust rental
property, but we also expect them to look after the property as if we were looking after it. That's
because being a National Trust Tenant means looking after a piece of history. It means being a
custodian of a building and it means helping to protect it for the next generation.
