How is the business best described?

Stay In Cornwall was founded to showcase the finest accommodation and visitor attractions across the county. In light of the recent funding cuts within the industry, it is also an invaluable, privately-owned destination marketing website for the county.

What are the business’s plans both short-term and long-term?

Our ultimate aim is to become the top tourist information resource for the county, providing a wealth of information to people looking to visit and a valuable marketing platform for businesses throughout the area. In the short term, we will continue to work with our advertisers to develop our website as well as maintain our targeted marketing and PR campaigns.

How does the business define success?

For us, success is encouraging as many people to visit the county as possible and we measure this by recording our website traffic and comparing year on year. We have shown significant growth since launching in 2011 and due to our marketing, PR, and technical expertise, we are confident that this trend will continue
