These Awards provide a fantastic opportunity for tourism and hospitality businesses in Dorset to:

• get recognition and reward for their achievements and hard work
• show that you are an award-winning business which helps build trust with visitors and sets you apart from the competition
• start your journey to national recognition, as winners in certain categories (for the ones shown with VE here) are automatically forwarded to compete in the national VisitEngland Awards for Excellence.

Whether you’re offering outstanding accommodation, memorable experiences, amazing attractions, fantastic food and drink or leading the way in sustainability, accessibility or customer service you will find a category for you.

Good luck.
