Has anyone else heard about the proposed tourist tax to be set by Edinburgh council. Apparently it will cover all types of accommodation so will affect the Edinburgh club site. The proposed fee is £2 per head which seems very steep.

We are used to paying this type of tax in France but that is generally only a few cents

I have spoken to my colleague who has advised that this is still at the consultation phase, and the Club is fully aware of the situation and has been part of the process.

No decisions have been made regarding the scale of charges, which tourism businesses will be affected or the geographic boundaries of any schemes that may be implemented. Once we have further information we will let you know.
