About Visiting Cornwall

  Background
 
 
  Visiting Cornwall is a creation of Amdow Web Design.
Although based in West Sussex, this web design company is headed by a cornishman, Alan Dowling, who came to the South East in the summer of 1992 to gain further experience in the IT field. He is now a Senior Business Analyst with a major government department.
Even though he is now living over 200 miles from Cornwall, Alan still makes time every year to pay at least one visit to the Duchy. His parents are still living in the house where Alan was born in St Austell and his in-laws are in the tourist industry near Helston.
 
 
  Vision and Objectives
 
 
  It is our vision for this website to provide as much information as possible for visitors to Cornwall. In doing so, we will also be providing that same information to the many other people with an interest in Cornwall that may never have the opportunity to visit it in person.
In order to obtain as much information as possible from those businesses involved in the many aspects of tourism in the county, we did not charge a penny for the inclusion of any basic entry in Visiting Cornwall until after December 2003.
Since that date there has been no charge to retain an original entry but all new entries now attract a nominal one-off charge of £10.00.
This charge also entitles the business to a basic enhanced entry if they wish.
Our objective is to become one of the prime websites related to visiting Cornwall. When we achieve this, we will be in a position to attract a high degree of paid advertising within our pages. Those business already on this website will benefit from this at no extra cost.
If you have a business related to tourism within Cornwall and you want to be included on this popular website, please contact us as detailed on the advertising and linking page.
