Press Release Body: While economics issues are playing a part, a growing number of
holidaymakers are rediscovering the joys of a UK break.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown's decision to holiday in Southwold this summer has put
the focus firmly on the relaxed and beautiful county of Suffolk. Tourism bosses said
more people were choosing the county for holidays with bookings up on last year.

Everyone in the industry is working hard to attract business as the market is
obviously tough but where there are good offers and good areas to visit with quality
accommodation, then those areas will benefit.

Just along the coast from Southwold is the stylish and very fashionable small resort
of Aldeburgh, set on the Suffolk Heritage Coast. Tim Rowan-Robinson, Managing
Director of Thorpeness and Aldeburgh Hotels said "business is strong at the moment
and we have every hope of a good year but there is still plenty of accommodation for
late bookers to snap up".

Thorpeness and Aldeburgh Hotels, and independent hotel group, have three hotels in
the area.
