In my view, the current very distinctive area names - Manning Valley, Barrington Tops and Great Lakes - give the tourist a strong sense of what each individually stunning area has to offer. To cluster them all under a common heading would, I fear, create a limited picture.
As a tourist I find the existing names more attractive. They highlight distinctive and unique areas, and make me to want to spend more time staying over to explore, rather than just passing through.
I look forward to revisiting Manning Valley, Barrington Tops and Great Lakes in April 2019.
