We are committed to providing a good, high quality service, whilst minimising the environmental impact of our activities.
We aim to adhere to good environmental practise in all our business activities. We recycle paper, magazines, junk mail, cardboard, glass, aluminium cans, steel cans, plastic bottles etc. Food waste is fed to the chickens or composted and our garden waste is also composted and grass cuttings are used as mulch. We use eco-friendly cleaning products and recycled paper. We use low energy light bulbs wherever possible, A rated appliances and double-glazing throughout with lowE units.
We have a fresh air and heat recovery system fitted in the farmhouse and “Sunset Lodge”. The lodge is heated by a ground source heat pump and cooled in the summer with heat being returned to the ground. We use our own organically grown raspberries and blackcurrants at breakfast. Other products are sourced locally. We provide of local maps to encourage guests to walk or cycle and leave the car behind.
We support the local community by being on the committee of the local Youth and Community Project, being a member of the Parish Council and by helping at the Local Riding for the Disabled. We also attend many local functions that are raising money for their various needs. We support the local primary school by helping at events and donating prizes etc. We buy local produce and use our own fruits and eggs for guests breakfasts. We make our own fruit juice for breakfasts. We use local services such as electricians, plumbers and builders or do the work ourselves, buying the materials locally.
We have recently installed a 10kW vertical axis wind turbine, which is feeding the main farmhouse.
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!
