What Guests can Do to Help

We are members of the Green Tourism Business Scheme and have been awarded “GOLD” grade membership. We also generate our own electricity from roof-mounted photo-voltaic panels (up to 3.76 KwH). You can help minimise our (and your) footprint on the earth's environment (while continuing to enjoy your stay) by:

• Switching off all lights and electrical equipment (including TVs at the set) when not in use 
• Re-using towels when practicable 
• Being happy to keep the same bed-linen for the length of your  stay (within reason!) 
• Using the liquid soap and shower gel provided rather than the miniatures 
• Drinking tap water (it's delicious here) rather than bottled 
• Recycling rubbish - either by leaving paper, cans or bottles by the waste bin rather than in it, or by disposing of such items in our recycling area (ask for location) 
• Visiting and buying produce or eating at our local farm shops 
• Visiting our local tourist attractions. Those that are GREEN* are marked with a 
• Hiring bikes from our local firms 
• Using Public Transport while staying at Dowfold House
• Filling in and leaving behind our "Green Questionnaire"

*a designation means that they are members of the Green Tourism Business Scheme 

Reading our "Green Section" in the room folder, or HERE will tell you what we're doing behind the scenes to keep green, details of environmentally focussed local attractions, farm shops etc.
