Environmental measures

Be a responsible visitor, here are 6 things you can do to help. We are undertaking the following actions in order to achieve this:

1 - Conserve Energy

Reduce energy by switching off lights and closing windows if your heating is on. More information is available from The Energy Saving Trust on what you can do at home.

2 - Shop Locally

Use local products, they give you a flavour of the area and help support local communities.

3 - Reduce, Reuse & Recycle

Try to avoid overly packaged goods and if possible say no to that extra carrier bag. Try and recycle any waste you have at home.

4 - Be Water Wise

Use Water wisely. Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth and adhere to hotels towel policies or other water saving initiatives.

5 - Respect Nature

Help us look after our landscape and wildlife by not littering, guarding against fire and using footpaths and cycle-ways responsibly.

6 - Support Green Tourism Businesses

There are hundreds of businesses trying to reduce their environmental impacts through the Green Tourism Business Scheme. Businesses are awarded Bronze, Silver and Gold for their efforts to be more environmentally responsible.
