Eco-Tourism

Cullum and Nightingale specialises in the field of eco-tourism and the provision of tourist facilities that are environmentally, socially and economically sustainable. Our work ranges from long-term strategic planning to detailed design and project management.

With extensive international experience we are able to identify strategies that maximise potential for income generation. We can develop design solutions that are specifically tailored to suit high value international tourists while taking advantage of low construction and running costs.

New guesthouse on Bequia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines

The new building on the shores of the island of Bequia has just been completed.

Our approach can be briefly summarised as minimizing the negative impact on the environment, whilst maximizing the long-term benefit to the locality, the community and the economy in general.

Tourists are increasingly discerning and concerned about possible detrimental effects of tourist activities and there is a rapidly burgeoning market for properly set up ecotourist facilities. We are well-placed to advise on facilities to attract the higher value end of the national and international tourist market.

We offer the following services:

• Strategic advice on location, siting and sizing of eco-resorts.
• Advice on principles to be adopted to minimise negative environmental impact and maximize benefit.
• Setting up appropriate design and construction teams.
• Design of layout and buildings, fittings and furniture.
• Advice on construction procurement, programme, etc. and supervision of work.
