Battle for Tourism Oscars

Nostell Priory Holiday Park

Following a record breaking number of entries to the White Rose Awards, Welcome to Yorkshire has today revealed which tourism businesses will battle it out for the most prestigious tourism awards in the UK.

The eagerly awaited list boasts 90 of Yorkshire’s best attractions, hotels, venues and individuals from the tourism industry. The list covers 16 categories (*categories and finalists listed at end), the winners from which will be announced at a glittering gala awards ceremony on the evening of 4^th October at the Yorkshire Event Centre based at the Great Yorkshire Showground in Harrogate.

Tickets for the White Rose Awards are being snapped up and the 90 finalists will be on the edge of their seats as the winners are announced in front of an estimated 1,000 guests.

Gary Verity, chief executive of Welcome to Yorkshire, said:

“The quality of this year’s White Rose Awards entries is so incredibly high we had no choice but to increase the number of those shortlisted. This clearly demonstrates that the Yorkshire tourism industry has really stepped up its game in terms of quality and presence, both of which are vital if we are to achieve our aims to be the UK’s best.”

The award categories range from Best Visitor Experience of the Year and the Access for All Tourism Award to the Sustainable Tourism Award and Business Tourism Award. Nostell Priory is nominated for the Caravan Holiday Park and Holiday Village Award. There is also a new category, Visitor Information Award, announced for 2010.

Previous winners have included: The Feversham Arms Hotel & Verbena Spa, Helmsley; Swinton Park, Masham; The Railway Children produced by York Theatre Royal and performed at The National Railway Museum; Sheffield City Hall, Sheffield; Residence 6, Leeds; The Yorkshire Waterways Museum, Goole, and Green’s Restaurant, Whitby.

Judging is undertaken by a panel of independent judges and as in previous years this has been no easy task. Independent Chair of Judges, Barbara Woroncow OBE, complimented the standard of 2010’s finalists:

“It is never easy to create a shortlist when the overall quality of submissions is of such an excellent standard. What is certain is that the finalist list really does represent some of our very best tourism attractions across the county, accommodation and experiences, from glamping to castles and mazes.”

All winners from the national categories are automatically entered into the national Enjoy England Awards for Excellence 2010.

Halloween Party and Ghost Walks, it’s been all go during October at Nostell Priory Holiday Park…

Another Halloween – another successful fancy dress party! This year brought a variety of costumes with many new people attending our annual event.

As always fancy dress was a must and we saw many new people attending this year’s party with a variety of costumes. Edward Scissor Hands won best adult costume, with best children’s costume being awarded to a well presented little witch.

Halloween decorations of severed hands, ghoulish bats, bloodied daggers, broom sticks and much more created a very atmospheric evening. It was evening full of fun and frolics and thanks to Andy Dunne on the disco and karaoke everyone danced the night away, making the most of singing their favourite songs x-factor style!

Over 70 people attended our first ever ghost walk on 30th October…
Our evening full of screams and laughter got off to a great start with a very scary ghost story. We then made our way through the woods where there was lots of spooky goings on…

Screams of laughter and fear filled the fields and deep wooded areas throughout the ghost walk. Scary discoveries were made and many ghosts, ghouls, and other scary characters were seen, which all added to the spooky atmosphere of the evening. The spooky night was brought to a close when all of our ghost and ghoul hunters enjoyed a well earned pie and peas.

The whole event was a great success and everyone is already looking forward to another one next year!
