National Trust Contract Holders
As a Contract Holder of the National Trust, you'll receive a free 'tenant pass' throughout the duration of your Occupation Contract. This means that you, your children (under 18) and one other adult can visit the places we care for, for free. You'll also receive a National Trust Handbook to help you plan your days out, a copy of the National Trust Magazine and a free parking permit for when you visit us.

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.
