Responsible tourism

As the pioneers of responsible tourism, we screen every trip so you can travel knowing your holiday will help support conservation and local people.

Each cottage has its own green credentials including low volt lighting, A+ class fridge/freezer, linen is changed once a week in order to save water, half flush toilets and is within walking/cycling distance to amenities. The cottage is "off the national grid" and gives guests the opportunity to experience first hand, living with solar panels using the latest renewable energy systems which work very efficiently.

We promote waste reduction by encouraging recycling and there are recycling bins locally in the village. We educate staff, guests and local schools about our environmental practices and on the solar energy system used. In our office we have low energy lighting and reuse paper.

If you are looking for a car during your holiday we offer Electric and Hybrid cars, just ask for a quote. Whilst staying at this villa you can walk to the beach and beach front restaurants are close by.

We also offer Holiday Extras which include our Paella night at Finca De Arrieta and Meals delivered you can choose vegetarian/plant-based and low dairy foods (which reduce CO2 emissions)

This particular holiday home has Solar water heater.

The Impacts of this Trip

We have used local stone and tradesmen in the restoration of the cottage. We promote rural tourism to our guests and encourage them to eat out locally and use local amenities such as shops, sports facilities, restaurants and farmers markets. We offer excursions for locals to visit the cottage and see the effectiveness of the solar power system.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

A hike across the amazing Timanfaya National Park led by Jose of Blackstone Treks.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

Just relax and enjoy it! The accommodation is a good location, spacious, spotlessly clean and well equipped.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Our holiday certainly benefited local restaurants and shops and the trek was led by a guide who was passionate about conservation and the preservation of the stunning landscape, flora and fauna. We did not hire a car and were able to walk or take local buses to the place we wanted to see, so our environmental impact was pretty low.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

Excellent.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

The best part was staying in the tiny fishing village of Punta Mujeres and interact with the locals simply by having a cortado or getting a beer with the others.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

This is the best slow travel I have experienced. Highly recommended, if you want to walk, trek, read, write, have great food and surrounded by simple, kind
people. An unforgettable holiday where the pace was slow and the locals very kind including the mini market at Punta Mujeres, the hair dresser and folks
at Bar Palenka. Make the effort to hang out with the locals, apart from walking along the coast all the way to Jameous Del Aqua and La Cueva de Les Verdes. One can easily do without a car. The buses are reliable.

If you enjoy quiet, this is the place for unhurried reflection and watching birds, sun rises and sun sets. The coast was three mins from our villa.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

I think it certainly helped the local people, considering there were no hotel or supermarket chains. It helped the environment, considering we did not have a
car and were limited to walking or taking the local bus. Our visits to some tourist spots contributed to conservation, I hope.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

Excellent. No complaints. But the service at our accommodation could be even better. It was not always easy to get information especially about transport.
But other than that, the locals were friendly and it could have been better.
