In its 20th year these awards, operated by VisitEngland/ VisitBritain under its consumer facing brand of Enjoy England, these awards aim to recognise best within the English tourism industry.  Each of the participants in the awards have come through regional heat operated by the the regional tourism boards of England.

 

For the first time in 2007 a sustainable tourism category was added to recognise the importance of this topic to the English tourism industry as well as to consumers.  The first year resulted in two "gold" winners - Strattons Hotel and Cottage Lodge both small accommodation operators (see link above).

Applications are through the regional tourist boards (see the following link and click on the appropriate part of the country - http://www.tourismtrade.org.uk/Tourism_Structure/england.asp)
