"As a family we visited weston for the first time and were unsure what the town offered. We went to the visitor information center on the Saturday 20th April and were astounded with the knowledge of the staff. They gave us expert advice and were so friendly. One lady in particular was so kind to us, she let me charge my phone for half an hour!! And she was fantastic with my son. I hope this review reaches her as I really feel she needs the acknowledgement and thanks she deserves. We will be visiting Weston again". Tripadvisor User
“The staff were very helpful and lots of useful information leaflets. It is best to visit at the start of the holiday so that you can use the vouchers in the information booklet which has maps ideal for exploring and finding your way around. Best to take one each to make most use of the vouchers. What was very much appreciated was that we were allowed to take our dog in with us.” – Angela, Swindon.
