Prestbury’s White House Manor House has been named the best small hotel in the North West.
The 12-bedroom New Road property was crowned at the fifth annual England’s North West Tourist Awards on Wednesday 22 October. The high-profile event, organised by the Northwest Regional Development Agency (NWDA), was hosted by interior designer and television personality Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen at Liverpool’s St George’s Hall.
The White House Manor impressed the judges with its commitment to excellence. Meanwhile, Congleton took the Tourist Information Centre of the Year title after coming out on top in a region-wide mystery shopping exercise.
The England’s Northwest Tourism Awards recognise excellence within the tourism industry and reward both group and individual achievement over the past year. In addition to receiving the prestigious title and trophy, many of the winners now have the opportunity to represent the Northwest in the national awards, organised by VisitBritain in April 2009.
Felicity Goodey, Chair of Tourism England’s Northwest said: “The Northwest Tourism Awards have set a very high benchmark for the industry over the past few years, with many of our winners going on to triumph at the national awards. We know that we have some of the UK’s best tourism businesses here in the region and these awards recognise and reward the leaders in what is a highly competitive industry."
