Our Green Environmental Policy

We want to do all we can to preserve the countryside around us. Over the past 35 years we have planted hundreds of native trees both in our garden and on our land to encourage the birds into the garden. We garden in a fully sustainable way, tidying the garden in Spring to leave the berries and seeds on the plants for the birds to eat and we leave wood piles around the garden for the use of hibernating small animals.

We have converted our stables to a very environmental specification; the heating is efficient and the insulation conforms to the latest building regulations. The building is built of Ham stone and is Grade 2 listed. The conversion is sympathetic to the surroundings and wood has been reused or repaired as much as possible to conserve as much of the character of the old building as possible.

The water from the taps come from our own spring, it is UV treated and softened.
