IOL Member receives South West Tourism Excellence Gold Award
They entered the category of Sustainable Tourism which was sponsored by First Great Western. There were 15 categories - Mill on the Brue and Forde Abbey were the only companies in Somerset to gain a gold.
In their application they described their ethos of recycling and conservation, tree planting and hedgerow regeneration, growing organic vegetables for their customers, healthy living, building with sustainable materials, attending to renewable energy, insulation, etc. but one of the major points was that as they have children as customers, they are educating them to take the message home.
