A HOTEL in Stretton has been shortlisted for an award after a shining performance from its sales team.

The Park Royal joins nine other businesses across Cheshire in the category for the chance to win at Marketing Cheshire's annual awards in October.

This recognises the achievements made by businesses and individuals working and contributing to Cheshire's £3.5 billion visitor economy.

Mark Livesey, chief executive, Marketing Cheshire, said: "There are 16 categories in this year’s award ceremony, including new awards for camping, glamping, holiday park of the year and pub of the year.

"As always, competition has been fierce because Cheshire is home to nationally recognised tourist brands and world class tourism professionals.

"The annual award ceremony is a great way to recognise and celebrate achievements in the Cheshire’s visitor economy."
