Berwick Visitor Survey

Although Berwick has a range of industries and businesses both within the town and on the Industrial Estates and Business Parks on the outskirts, there can be little doubt that the pre-dominate industry is tourism.  It brings most people into the town, gets more money spent in the shops, businesses and accommodation providers than any other industry and helps to define the town's identity.

In 2009 Northumberland Tourism conducted a visitor survey of eight market towns in the county including Berwick.

In Berwick they interviewed (over the course of two weeks [one in March in low season and one in August in high season]) at eight different locations throughout the town 487 different visitors to the town which produced a very accurate report of what visitors to the town actually think about Berwick.  The Berwick specific report can be found by clicking here. 

As Northumberland tourism did studies of another seven market towns a composite report comparing all eight towns to each other was prepared and can be found by clicking here
