Hetty and Cathy went to London yesterday to the World Travel Market; we attended knowing only that we had been shortlisted for the award.  So we were very proud to be able collect the runner up award in the Best Destination Category.  

This is certainly down to the collective efforts of you – the tourism businesses in the area and your continued commitment to developing the sustainable tourism offer in Bowland, so very well done.  I will forward a press release with further info soon if you want to use it in your own marketing.
