GREEN POLICY
We are very conscious that we live in a beautiful part of the world, so we strive to do our bit to help keep it that way by preserving the environment. We are proud supporters of the Green Tourism Business Scheme. We would appreciate if you could assist us in our 'green endeavours' by observing the following :

Energy
Please switch off lights and other appliances when not needed.

Linen
We will only replace linen upon request. This is to avoid unnecessary use of soap and electricity. If your towels are hanging up, we shall leave them; if they are left on the floor or in the shower, we will replace them.

Recycling
We will be happy to recycle any glass, paper, cans and 'Tetrapak' style cartons for you - please leave any such items next to the waste paper bin in your room. If you find you have unwanted brochures for local attractions, please return them to the information area for the use of other guests rather than throwing them away.

Toilets
Our sewage system works off a septic tank and we request that no items other than toilet paper are placed in the toilet as they will cause unpleasant blockages.

Water
The water from the cold tap in your room is fine to drink and tastes wonderful. Please consider drinking tap water as opposed to buying bottled water as the production of such involves unnecessary use of energy. If you do buy bottled water, please try to select water in glass bottles which can be recycled (there are no plastic recycling facilities locally). n.b. You may occasionally see brown flecks in the water - this is peat which is not harmful and perfectly natural in this area.
