Tourism Promotion
West Somerset Council’s Cabinet agreed to new, improved marketing and promotion of tourism services in West Somerset to raise the profile of the whole district as a holiday destination.
A new Exmoor Tourism Partnership (ETP), which comprises the Exmoor Tourist Association, Active Exmoor, West Somerset Council and Exmoor National Park Authority, was given the green light to start pro-actively marketing Exmoor and West Somerset, including the Quantocks Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, as a quality visitor destination.
Cabinet also gave the go ahead for a refreshed, new-look tourism guide for the district. The views of tourism service providers will be sought at an open meeting on July 14.
