How to Enter
The Beautiful South Tourism Awards provide a fantastic opportunity for tourism and hospitality businesses in the South East to get recognition for their achievements and share their success with customers.
They’re also a valuable marketing tool. Being able to show that you are an award-winning business helps build trust with potential visitors and sets you apart from the competition. These awards could also be the start of 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.
The Beautiful South Tourism Awards are open to all tourism and hospitality businesses located in South East England (Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hampshire, Surrey, the Isle of Wight, Sussex and Kent). Each entry costs £73.50 plus VAT but paid-up members of Tourism South East (as at the date of Awards entry submission) have the benefit of three free entries and VisitKent members can enter one category for free. In addition, the Unsung Hero award is free for members and non-members. You can enter as many as you like, just make sure to check that you are eligible – you will find the criteria on the entry forms.
