Quote from David Wilson: "We want to thank everyone who voted in this year's competition, we had over 1000 votes, which is quite staggering! We're really pleased to announce that the winner is Andy Kassell and this lovely shot of his dogs Ollie and Oscar running on the beach at Widemouth Bay. It has been one of the most successful competitions we've run with absolutely stunning images and wonderful support from everyone who has voted. Andy and his family win a FREE week here at Helsbury!"

Andy Kassell said "We'd just like to say how overjoyed we are at winning the Helsbury Dog Photo Competition. Helsbury is a fantastic, and I would have to say, unique place for both location and facilities, certainly living up to the expectation. We would definitely be returning to Helsbury even without the generous prize, but it makes it all the more sweet."

It has received numerous accolades, including a 2008 Cornwall Tourism Gold Award, a South West England Tourism Excellence Award and was winner of the Kennel Club’s Open for Dogs ‘Somewhere to Holiday’ Award 2009.
