“…Despite this situation, there have been many recent academic studies in this field. As examples, we highlight the doctoral theses of Moral-Moral (2016), Morales-Hernández (2017), Polo-Peña (2010) and Roig-Merino (2004), and the articles by Ferrari et al (2010), García-Pozo et al (2011), Ponce-Sánchez and Canales-Martínez (2017), and Villanueva-Álvaro et al (2017) among others.…”

Rural tourism is currently one of the most dynamic segments of tourism demand, and rural accommodation is one of the accommodation choices most in demand. Based on various documentary sources, the goal of this article was to analyse aspects related to the qualitative evolution of this activity that have led to the rapid growth of this type of accommodation. Using a purpose-built database generated from the information obtained from our own survey, which was developed following other studies on this topic, we applied a partial least squares model to analyse the impacts on the environment in terms of the offer and their relationship with environmental management. The results show that the attitude of rural establishment managers has a decisive influence on the behaviour of their clients regarding ecological respect and a positive impact on water and energy consumption.

“…In general terms, the typology of tourism in rural areas has many common characteristics, as established by several authors [14,[25][26][27][28]. It is a type of tourism that is developed in rural areas with little massification, with a quality cultural and natural offer, linked to the rural space [29], contributing as an activity for the local development of rural areas, thus maintaining the existing population, in order to avoid a rural exodus [30,31].…”

At the end of the 20th century, tourism was positioned as an activity capable of diversifying and reactivating the economies of rural European areas, which were experiencing problems of demographic regression and a high rate of ageing. Subsequently, with the emergence and promotion of new models of tourism consumption, the provision of rural tourism facilities has increased, as is the case in the north of Extremadura. This study analyzes, through the use of a descriptive and analytical method, the distribution of the demographic, socioeconomic and heritage variables existing in the tourist territory of the Valle del Jerte-La Vera region in order to interrelate them with the tourist supply and demand in this area. The results allow us to observe that Valle del Jerte-La Vera is promoting tourist activities, with the promotion and implementation of better lines of action for the reception of travelers, in such a way that they favor the increase in the economic income, and these factors are capable to maintain the existing population, thus facilitating the development of rural areas.

“…More recent research concludes that the implementation of sustainability practices by small rural tourism businesses is determined by environmental pressures, mainly from their clients. This issue is associated with the concept of social license, which stimulates the establishment of control mechanisms to evaluate the amount of social responsibility exerted and strengthens positive attitudes towards sustainable initiatives [30]. In addition, some research found that consumers that are environmentally concerned "created a common sense of responsibility and commitment that is expressed through their ethical organic food consumption and production behaviors, global environmental sensitivity, and by their actions within their communities" [31].…”

This study aims to develop a better understanding of what drives small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to engage in environmental practices in isolated rural areas. Despite a growing literature on environmental behavior in different contexts, the green activities of SMEs in rural areas remains underexposed. This neglect is remarkable, and deserves attention given the serious depopulation problems they have to face, and the economic and social challenges that lie ahead. Using unique data from 141 SMEs in one of the most sparsely populated regions in the European Union, we study the influence of territorial relations on firms’ environmental conduct. Our results suggest that different territorial factors have some impact on the adoption of environmental practices. We report evidence indicative of the role of these factors in shaping environmental decisions. Finally, we offer suggestions for future research that could further develop our understanding of environmental management decisions in rural and underpopulated areas.
