While we normally post lovely views and offers on our page we want to lend our support to this excellent campaign. We have a fabulous high street full of independent businesses in our lovely town. However, through the attitude of the Welsh Government strangling businesses with rates far higher than England and their equally poor attitude to tourism, a stand needs to be taken. At Sunnyside we support this wholeheartedly. We are proud of our town, its businesses and our role in bringing you, our guests, here to share it. Please, please share this so the Fair Deal for Businesses campaign can get the national coverage it deserves! Thank you friends! The Sunnyside Team
In addition to the points we've already made there is so much more that can be added to this campaign.
The tourism levy which is impacting holiday let's to the point that many are closing their doors.
The threat of the £1 per mile tax which is ludicrous.
No Visit Wales campaigns running across the UK or internationally. Between 2019 and 2022 international tourism was down by 22% and those that did visit their spend was down 24% according to statistics.
The hospitality and tourism industry is crucial to Welsh economy and yet on several levels it is being suffocated.
