Growth in tourism must demonstrate HOW it will benefit the local economy. The recent application for a winery and visitor centre at Cuxton was initially supported by Medway Council, however, no evidence was provided that the visitors were likely to spend any money outside the winery and so tourism would only benefit the winery business.
Location is the key if tourism is to benefit the local economy.
