HILL OF TARVIT NEWS “STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION”

North East Fife MP Sir Menzies Campbell and MSP Iain Smith have welcomed the news that the National Trust for Scotland are going to keep the Hill of Tarvit mansion house open to the public, albeit only on selected dates throughout the visitor season.

They said:

“This is a welcome step in the right direction. This decision is recognition of public opinion and the campaign that was fought to keep it open. It paves the way for a more sustainable and more successful operation that will benefit the visiting public, the local community and the National Trust itself.

“It is imperative that the NTS gives adequate publicity to both the hospitality and function opportunities and the public open days to ensure that these are successful.

“We ask the local public to show their support by visiting Hill of Tarvit this summer and encouraging others to do so too.”
