Caring for our Environment

We support the Green Island Tourism Project and haveachieved status of a ‘Gold’ Green Island Award.
For more information visit the website:- http://www.greenislandtourism.org

We aim to minimise the harmful effects and maximise the beneficial influences our activities have on the Island’s environment.

As such we:-

  • Encourage our visitors to recycle waste:- containers are provided for newspapers, magazines, glass and kitchen wastes.
  • Have replaced many filament lamps with low energy equivalents
  • Promote green transport to guests – see Contact and Booking.
  • Keep marketing material to a minimum. Most of our communication is via this website – brochures are only printed and distributed on request.
  • Use recycled, locally sourced and fair trade products where practicable
  • Support local environmental initiatives such as Gift to Nature and Island 2000.

You can play your part too. Why not shop locally or have local island produce delivered direct to the cottage, see Real Island Foods
