Wales may introduce visitor levy for people staying overnight

Proposal would give councils option to charge 75p-1.25 a night to help alleviate pressure on local services

People who stay in Wales overnight, including children, are set to be charged a visitor levy under a scheme that could raise up to 33m a year to be ploughed back into tourism and culture.

All visitors would be charged 75p a night to stay in campsites and hostels and 1.25 for all other accommodation including hotels, B&Bs and holiday lets.
