Staff at Fenn Holidays in March say they are ‘absolutely thrilled’ to have been crowned small fleet winners at the Coach Tour Operator of the Year Awards.

The awards, regarded as the coach industry’s OSCARS, are organised by trade magazine Coach Monthly.

They are held to recognise excellence and innovation in tour operators across the UK.

The winners were revealed on March 16 at an awards ceremony in Birmingham hosted by Anthea Turner with Peter and Margaret Fenn collecting the award.

The company has also begun touring two new cutting edge Van Hool Astron TX17 models, which were brought in to the country at the beginning of March.

The coaches, boasting 48 seats each, offer more legroom than standard coaches.
