In 2018, the company took out a silver gong at the State award ceremony.
The finalists for the awards were announced on Friday morning, October 18.
Celebrating its 30th year in 2019, the NSW Tourism Awards attracted 146 entrants representing a diverse range of businesses from across New South Wales.
Finalists across 26 categories are recognised for excellence in a range of tourism areas such as tourist attractions, festivals and events, new tourism business, destination marketing, accommodation and excellence in accessible tourism.
"The NSW Tourism Awards are the most prestigious awards in the tourism industry, with a long history of celebrating and recognising business excellence, innovation and outstanding customer service by tourism operators," Western NSW Business Chamber regional manager Vicki Seccombe said.
"We're thrilled to see so many Western NSW businesses announced as finalists. It highlights the strength of the tourism industry right across the region, with finalists from Lithgow, Bathurst, Mudgee, Orange, Dubbo, Broken Hill and Forbes."
The winners of the 2019 NSW Tourism Awards will be announced at a Gala Dinner on November 14 at the Four Seasons Hotel, Sydney. Gold Medal winners in categories 1 to 25 go on to represent NSW at the Qantas Australian Tourism Awards, to be held in Canberra in March 2020.
Other finalists include Mudgee's Bandalong Cottages and its Water to Wine Campaign, Bathurst's Winter Festival and Visitor Information Centre.
