Essex Tourism Awards

The awards, sponsored by Essex County Council and organised by Archant, were designed to highlight the very best of Essex tourism and raise the profile of the industry across the county. We congratulate all the winners, as well as all the finalists. Everyone involved will agree that the ceremony was a great success, and a fantastic opportunity to showcase the attractions and opportunities that Essex has to offer and we are looking forward to doing it all over again next year!
