We made a tourism bureau site for our village in South Africa

Greyton is a popular holiday village in the Riviersonderend mountain range in the Western Cape South Africa. At the entrance to the village what was once a thriving tourism information office that existed on accommodation bookings commissions was pretty much bankrupt by Airbnb taking over most accommodation bookings in our village. Like many places in the world, houses were being bought by outsiders to put on Airbnb. Significantly lower income for the tourist office meant it had to reduce its marketing activities for the village, offer shorter opening hours which affected the service it offers providing hiking & mountain biking maps and advice on routes, accommodation & events info & booking and helping many a traveler out who has run out of petrol (there is only one petrol station that is often empty, same story with ATMs) We decided to make a Wordpress site in our spare time and we're pretty happy with it. Take a look - would appreciate any comments, suggestions, insults, etc https://greytontourism.com
