• Biodegradable environmentally friendly products used where possible. These include rubbish bags, paper cups, EnviroTech multipurpose cleaners and sanitizer, toilet rolls and printing paper.
• We recycle all glass, tin, plastic and cardboard and encourage our visitors to do the same.
• We use a skip instead of a rubbish hole or burning it
• Sand filtration beds used in the septic system
• As lighting requires replacement LED lights are being installed. Lights are on sensors and daylight switches.
• Drying rooms heated by geothermal water is both provided for Campers and business use.
• Internal heating provided by Radiator heaters which utilize geothermal water to heat.
• Energy efficiency is a key determinant in all equipment purchases.
