Environmental Policy

We are commited to minimising our impact on the environment.

Here are a few of the steps we take to do our bit...

- We only heat guest rooms when they are occupied. An open fire in the guest lounge keeps this area cosy.

- We use fresh flowers grown on-site when possible

- Kettles in rooms are small to avoid boiling unecessary water

- We use energy-saving bulbs where possible

- We use eco-friendly cleaning products, dishwasher tablets and washing powder

- Our bedlinen and towels are laundered by Sunlight. We approved of their Corporate Social Responsibility statements.

- Each guest room has refillable dispensers for handwash, hand lotion and shower gel. They are made from natural ingredients and sourced locally from Bath House

- The vast majority of our food is locally sourced, seasonal and usually organic. We vary our specials menu to adapt to what is in season. We store our own produce from the garden using both traditional and modern methods.

- Our marketing literature is all printed locally using recycled paper and eco-friendly inks

- We recycle paper, glass, plastic, tin and cardboard. We also have a compost system which is used on our garden and orchard.

- We re-use timber, stone and other building materials when maintaining and improving the building and grounds

- We are always looking for new ways to make ourselves more environmentally-friendly whilst making sure our guests have a comfortable and high-quality experience with us.
