Special Announcement

We're excited to announce our famous Mackintosh Tea Rooms have become part of the National Trust for Scotland.

The charity’s intervention, following difficult trading conditions which threatened the future of the iconic building, has secured the future of this important and original work by Charles Rennie Mackintosh.

As the custodians of one of Mackintosh’s other rare masterpieces, the Hill House in Helensburgh, we see the Trust’s acquisition of Mackintosh at the Willow as a perfect fit.

Enabled by support from their members and donors, the Trust is using a combination of reserves and acquisition funds to secure the property, with vital additional help given by National Lottery Heritage Fund, The Royal Bank of Scotland, The Architectural Heritage Fund, Glasgow City Council, Celia Sinclair Thornqvist MBE and her husband, Rolf Thornqvist. As a result, we will continue trading as normal with our existing workforce.

Members of the National Trust for Scotland will be able to enjoy access to the property’s excellent exhibition for free from 12 January. More updates on the Willow Tea Rooms Trust to follow.
