The South West Tourism Excellence Awards, open for entries in April/May this year and will be announced on this website and via our regular Tourism Industry Newsletter. Businesses in Cornwall should in the first instance enter the Cornwall Tourism Awards, except for the Business Tourism, Tourism Event and Access categories which are only run regionally. The Cornwall awards open for entries BEFORE the South West awards so you will need to keep an eye on the VisitCornwall website in the mean time. www.cornwalltourismawards.co.uk Cornwall Tourism Award winners will be automatically fast-tracked into the category equivalent in the regional awards.
