We have arranged with our electricity supplier a contract which exclusively utilises electricity from renewable sources such as wind. Throughout the guesthouse we have placed long-life low watt bulbs wherever possible. Having recently undergone a complete refurbishment we are assured that our insulation is of the highest possible standards. We aim to economise our gas consumption as much as possible and have installed a control system for the central heating which allows us to selectively restrict heating to rooms which are unoccupied and thus reducing wastage. We are constantly reviewing our gas consumption in the hopes of finding more appropriate alternatives. A recent extension to our kitchen and dry store has allowed us to implement a sedum roof giving us added insulation and more green space for the immediate environment.
We have arranged with local recycling co-operative to for regular collections of all our recyclable waste, such as glass, paper, cartons, tins, and including tetra packaging. All our bio-degradable waste is processed through a wormery which in turn provides us with excellent and rich compost for all our gardening and planting projects. We provide each room with two waste baskets and ask quests to kindly separate recyclable material from non-recyclable.
All our en-suite baths, showers and wash basins are provided with specialised hygienic soap dispensers made particularly for the hospitality industry. This enables us to reduce the wastage of both packaging and un used soap products. We do ask our guests staying more than one night to place towels they wish to be washed on the floor thus minimising the need to wash towels guests are still satisfied with.
All our cleaning materials and detergents are sourced from companies providing ecological solutions, such as Ecover. Our company car has been converted to run on Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG).
We support the local community by procuring all our produce from local suppliers. We are closely aligned and committee members of the local preservation society. We pride ourselves upon our largely organic breakfast which is primarily sourced from local suppliers.
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!
