The Crisis: Scottish Holiday Accommodation Owners Are Missing £Millions in Revenue
Scottish holiday parks and caravans generated £991 million in visitor expenditure in 2022/23 - yet most individual owners lack professional digital presence to capture their share of this massive market.
The brutal reality for caravan and lodge owners:
- Average holiday let income: £24,500 annually - yet 70% of owners lack optimised booking systems
- Premium pricing strategies deliver 42% more revenue and 44% more bookings - but require professional digital implementation
- Pet-friendly properties earn additional 15% revenue - marketing advantage lost without proper online presence
- Scottish tourism recovering faster than UK with 25% higher visitor numbers than rest of UK - but digitally invisible owners miss out
Meanwhile, professionally marketed properties dominate bookings and achieve premium rates.
