Sustainability Goals
100% of our electricity is generated using renewable energy, with most of it coming from Wind farms around the UK. We recycle a minimum of 70% of the waste from our hotels. This target is achieved by everyone in the hotel focusing on the waste we produce and is championed by our Sustainability Council who work on projects year round. We have moved to a chemical‑free cleaning system in our bedrooms and public areas and an enzyme‑based eco‑friendly system for our kitchens. Volunteer to work for sustainable charities 2 days per year on full pay instead of your normal workplace.
