The Cornwall Tourism Awards
The evening celebrated excellence in Cornish tourism. Soundview were category sponsors for the Active and Sporting Experience awards. Of course, it’s a real accolade to win an award. Those that enter undergo months of assessment and visits. Competition is fierce, with 180 entries in total. But we are really pleased to announce that the Gold medal winners were Lanhydrock, with silver going to Newquay Activity Centre and Scilly Seal Snorkelling. All winners offer visitors extraordinary experiences. From off road cycle trails, coasteering, surfing to swimming with the local wildlife, they really deserve their awards
Other winners on the night included the Screech Owl Sanctuary, picking up the prestigious Winner of Winners trophy. And all award winners will be fast tracked into the South West Tourism Excellence Awards in February 2018 and possibly invited to represent Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly in the 2018 National VisitEngland Awards. Awards organizer Robin Barker introduced the evening saying:
“These awards are not about being good. They are about excellence in what is one of the world’s largest, fastest growing and most innovative industries. To be a winner, in a destination with the standing of Cornwall, is something winners should take great pride in.”
