As a small business we recognize and take our responsibility to the environment and the local community seriously. We strive to have a positive impact on both and we ensure all aspects of our operations adhere to this principle. We carefully consider suppliers who share our values and we ensure we are always able to offer the best and most environmentally friendly products to our guests.
Amongst our employees, we have an active ‘Green team’ to ensure that our hotel runs as ‘greenly’ as possible. They enthusiastically keep us all in check and constantly strive for ways that we can have a more positive environmental impact, they look at ways to reduce our energy consumption, our waste and identify where we can source greener products.
