Quality Assurance All properties that advertise in this Holiday Guide are inspected by either VisitBritain, The AA or under a local inspection scheme - Quality Cumbria, or have recently applied for a rating and are waiting assessment. Please be aware that ratings may change throughout the year. Information about the grading schemes are shown below, but if you would like further information please pick up a free leaflet at any Tourist Information Centre or contact the appropriate organisation: VisitBritain Quality in Tourism Farncombe House, Broadway, Worcestershire Tel: 0208 5633309 feedback@ visitbritain. org www. enjoyEngland. com The AA 15th Floor Fanum House, Basing View, Basingstoke RG21 4EA Tel: 01256 844455 customer. services@ theAA. com www. theAA. com Quality Cumbria Cumbria Tourism Windermere Road, Staveley Tel: 01539 825069 info@ qualitycumbria. org www. qualitycumbria. org Ratings Made Easy The following descriptions of what to expect apply to all types of accommodation. Use them as a general guide to what you can expect. 1 star: Simple, practical, no frills 2 star: Well presented and well run 3 star: Good level of quality and comfort 4 star: Excellent standard throughout 5 star: Exceptional with a degree of luxury Both the national assessing bodies ( Visit Britain & The AA) now assess hotels and guest accommodation ( including B& Bs) to the same criteria and award one to five stars. The star rating reflects the overall quality of the experience. Places that ' go the extra mile' to make your stay a special one, will be awarded a high star rating and hotels and guest accommodation may achieve a Gold or Silver award. Gold awards are given to the very ' best of the best'. Silver awards recognise exceptional quality at all levels. For serviced accommodation there are two separate schemes – one for hotels and one for guest accommodation. Please check with individual accommodation providers which scheme they are assessed towards. For self- catering accommodation the layout & design of the accommodation and the range & quality of the kitchen equipment is assessed, as well as the quality & comfort of the bedrooms & bathrooms. Hostels provide safe, budget priced accommodation for young people, families and larger groups and are star- rated. Higher rated accommodation often provides en- suite rooms. Holiday, touring and camping parks and holiday villages: Star rating awards reflect the overall quality of the park from one to five stars – five being reserved for parks of exceptional quality. Quality Cumbria With the help of VisitBritain and in partnership with the Accommodation, Inspection and Advisory Services ( AIAS), Cumbria and Lakeland Self Caterers' Association ( CaLSCA) and the Lakes Hospitality Association ( LHA), Cumbria Tourism has developed Quality Cumbria, a Quality Assurance programme. Quality Cumbria is a local quality initiative developed to recognise and drive up the standards of serviced and non- service accommodation. It is part of the VisitBritain national START scheme, providing a structured and planned transition to the National Quality Assurance Standards ( NQAS) that are operated by VisitBritain and The AA. Awaiting Inspection At time of going to press, properties denoted ' Awaiting Inspection' have applied for participation in one of the relevant schemes.
