Europe’s Leading Destination Award Goes To…….

7th September 2013

Wait for it….

The award goes to the County of Yorkshire!!

Yorkshire won the title of Europe’s Leading Destination in 2013 which was awarded at the World Travel Awards in Antalya, Turkey.

Gary Verity, chief executive of Welcome to Yorkshire, said the award was a “real validation” of the efforts put in by the county’s tourism industry.

“It’s fantastic to see Yorkshire taking its rightful place as one of the top holiday destinations in Europe,” said Mr Verity.

So, don’t buck the trend, come and see why Yorkshire is a leading destination and why Skipton is the Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales.
