Chester Zoo has been crowned the Large Visitor Attraction of The Year at a top tourism awards ceremony.

The VisitEngland Excellence Awards, which have been running for more than 30 years, took place on Wednesday, June 8, at the Library of Birmingham and were hosted by broadcaster and author, Clare Balding.
