Categories: Visitor News
Popular visitor attraction and campsite River Dart Country Park in Ashburton, Devon, have won yet more awards at the recent regional South West Tourism Excellence Awards.
The team have won numerous awards in the last few months including Small Visitor Attraction of the year at the Visit Devon Tourism Awards, Rural Business Awards and South West Business Awards. The most recent award wins were announced at a special ceremony at Exeter Cathedral last Thursday (6th Feb)
They took home GOLD in the Touring Camping And Caravanning Park Of The Year and SILVER in the Small Visitor Attraction Of The Year and Ethical, Responsible & Sustainable Tourism Award categories.
The River Dart team are now hoping to keep their successful winning streak by being nominated for the national Visit England Awards, the next stage of the award process.
Roger Sell, General Manager at River Dart Country Park, said: “To be recognised and awarded for all our passion and hard work is fantastic. We are all incredibly proud of everything we do at the Park and these awards signify that. Being nominated alongside the best tourism businesses in the region is one thing, but to go and win your category is really something else. We’re incredibly pleased, these are exciting times for us!”
