In spring 2007 we were approved as organic lemon growers. Not only does this mean we have great lemons but also, grass, wildflowers and birds in abundance in spring. Where possible we grow and buy locally organic produce and support local markets and shops. We have an emphasis on vegetarian and fish cuisine and can arrange special diets for people with allergies to lactose, wheat, etc.
Solar energy:
Reliance on fossil fuel is reduced by our large solar installation at our guesthouse in Malaga. We have a battery of 12 large solar panels capable of supplying hot water for up to 14 guests. In winter we heat the main lounge burning logs from sustainable forestry sources.
Purchases:
General attention to minimising dependance on chemicals, over use of packaging etc . No use of hardwoods
Eco orchard:
Approved for organic lemons by CAAE and COAG, the recognised accreditation organisations in Spain for promotion and certification for organic growers. No use of chemical weedkillers or fertilizers on the orchard.
Minimise use of pape:
No publicity brochures
Recycling of waste:
Cartons, glass, paper, plastics, etc. Recycling of motor and cooking oils. Reuse of plastic bags
Water conservation:
Water is precious at our guesthouse in Malaga and is used sparingly with grey water recycled when possible. Drip feed irrigation system used on the orchard.
Cycles: available to guests at our guesthouse in Malaga as an alternative to using cars for day trips.
We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
