The hotel has had an active but unwritten environment policy for many years now. This document seeks to outline our efforts to reduce the impact of our activities on the world around us. Our policy is underpinned by our conviction that it is only by making a deliberate attempt to limit the impact we have on our planet that we will be able to pursue our activities in the long term.

In the hospitality industry, in particular where meals are offered, there is a fine line between environmentally friendly and hygienic food service. Some individually wrapped items are still used – such as jam / butter / margarine. Use of plastic wrap and aluminium foil is kept to an absolute minimum, used cooking oil is used to make floor polish with the peel from the used lemons and vinegar, the remainder goes to our egg supplier to be mixed with chicken feed.
