Living in such a beautiful part of the country we are only too aware of how much our guests appreciate our magnificent surroundings and we try to run our business in a manner that is as environmentally friendly as possible. Our commitment to this is evidenced by our participation in VisitScotland’s Green Tourism programme for which we are annually assessed. With this in place we have made the following commitments to our business.

• Source local produce wherever possible.
• Make our own jams and marmalade.
• Recycle all glass, metal, cans, plastic, paper and household waste wherever possible.
• To conserve water we ask our guests to place towels on the rail that they will use again, and to only place towels in the bath if they wish them to be changed.
• Use natural bio degradable cleaning products wherever possible.
• Utilise Internet based marketing to eliminate marketing literature.
• Use of e-mail for booking confirmations, directions and general advice for the area.
• LED light bulbs in use throughout the house.
• Provide walking and cycling information so that our guests may enjoy nature in a sustainable, natural way.
• Provide storage for cycles, walking equipment and any other outdoor equipment guests may have.
• Provide information on local public transport.
