Yurt holiday accommodation in Lanzarote, Canary Islands

Environment:
The eco twin yurt construction has a low impact on the environment as it is not a permanent structure and is made simply of wood and fabric. The yurts own green credentials include, led lighting (these are low voltage), A+ class fridge, recycled wood on its kitchen/shower room building, use of well water, linen is changed once a week in order to save water.

Its electric is supplied from natural recourses and runs "Off the National Grid" and gives guests the opportunity to experience firsthand, living with solar panels and wind turbines and using the latest renewable energy systems. It has been installed the most up to date energy systems on offer, and they work very efficiently. The system is the largest on Lanzarote and runs on a 48 Volt system and has no problem powering the 12 dwellings on site. Other Green credentials include use of grey water, led lighting, solar pool heating, use of well water for pool, A+ class fridge, half flush toilet, organic fruit and veg and within walking/cycling distance to amenities. Local stone and trades men have helped bring the retreat to a beautifully finished paradise.

Other environmental practices we follow include:

- Waste reduction: We encourage recycling and have bins locally. Any organic waste can be given to our chickens.
- Conserving water: We ask client to be use water sparingly. We use our own well water which is used for the swimming pool, we also use our grey water on our palm trees.
