Visit Somerset to integrate with leading Accommodation booking service so that consumers can book direct.

Visit Somerset has started work with the Somerset Community Foundation and Somerset Social Care introducing our new Community Pages.

The Board at Visit Somerset are delighted to announce with their European Partners - The launch of Artificial Intelligence - backed up by extensive data harvesting, supporting customer and members with far greater accuracy and productivity

The Visit Somerset team launch a new job advertising service.

A return to lockdown in Somerset seemed unlikely in recent weeks and has come as a shock to many. Whilst the R rate has been increasing in our area, the South West appeared much more stable than other parts of England. Until last weekend, Visit Somerset had been promoting our facilities to potential visitors who were not restricted to travel, in the hope that all aspects of the visitor economy could at least facilitate some income streams before the turn of the year.

As a key part of our Digital Strategy to help local businesses and promote the region - we’re very excited to launch our Visit Somerset Experiences Booking Platform for attractions, museums, historic houses, activities and events. 

The Visit Somerset digital platforms continue to move from strength to strength despite the Pandemic - with further plans being put into place.

The Digital team are introducing monthly Digital mapping so that we can understand the performance of the front of the website.

Be the Business is a fully-funded programme designed to support tourism and hospitality businesses improve their leadership and management skills, business productivity and competitiveness.

Major Digital Drive is under way, with two new Booking Engines now in development for experiences and accommodation booking.
