New Discover Folkestone web site to tempt tourists

AFTER a month when its website attracted a record 379,175 hits, the Discover Folkestone, Hythe & Romney tourism marketing organisation has switched to a new inter-active system which provides potential visitors with more information and improved facilities to find and book inspected accommodation. Linked to the destination management system operated by VisitKent and other information providers and to major search engines the new-look www.discoverfolkestone.co.uk also gives local tourism businesses more opportunities to access regional, national and international markets.
