Winner of the EDP Best Visitor Information Award
We are proud to announce that North Norfolk District Council have been awarded the ‘Best Visitor Information’ award in the recent EDP Tourism awards 2011 for the North Norfolk Information Centre in Cromer.
This is a tremendous accolade and represents all the work that has been undertaken by the team. Engagement with both the public and tourism trade families has been a priority and the success of this has in no doubt contributed to the award.
For further information please visit the EDP Tourism Awards 2011 website.
North Norfolk Information Centre is an environmentally-friendly and innovative designed building that includes solar energy and underground heat source pumps which provides 60% of the heating needs for the building.
The North Norfolk Information Centre can provide information electronically which compliments the traditional access for customers to local and national information.
Services provided at this centre include public Internet access (subject to availability), free Wi-Fi hotspot and some Council services such as the sale of parking permits. There are two touch screen computers which are available to access tide timetables, bus timetables, accommodation (in North Norfolk and Nationwide) and council services (both district and county services).
If you need any assistance the staff are always on hand to help and guide you.
