November 28, 2007 - CELEBRATIONS are underway after Farmer Palmer’s scooped two more top tourism awards.
The family-run children’s attraction in Organford, Dorset, was crowned Tourist Attraction Experience of the Year and won the award for Outstanding Customer Service in the Bournemouth Tourism Awards 2007.
They saw off stiff competition from the BIC and Pavilion, Bournemouth Seafront and from Bournemouth Oceanarium.
Sandra Palmer, who runs the farm with her brother Phillip, said: “We’re over the moon! Both awards are a reflection of our hard-working brilliant team who take such care to ensure the children have a first class experience here.
“Our staff go above and beyond – one worker even gave a home to one of our pigs when it was ready for retirement. Our shop workers are not only great at ordering toys that go down a storm with the children; they’re also well used to reuniting children with misplaced teddies and lost property.
“Debbie Gladwinfield, our Park Manager has a heart of gold and can turn her hand to anything, from mending go-karts to milking cows or driving the tractor.”
The Bournemouth Tourism Awards, which were presented at a glittering ceremony, recognise those companies striving to make the region’s tourism world class.
The awards are in their second year – Farmer Palmer’s has now won Tourism Attraction Experience of the Year two years in succession.
