of their property as a base for touring, with lists of things to see, do and discover within easy driving distance.
Themed Trails. Market themed trails in your area e.g. a heritage day trip.
Accommodation Bundles. Accommodation
providers from different towns/areas should consider working together to provide and market accommodation bundles
