Green Tourism Initiative

Here at Great Ashley Farm we are trying to consider the environment whilst still operating in a friendly, comfortable and efficient way.

Some of our Green actions, such as low energy lighting will be obvious, others not so visible to you:-

  • We try our utmost to support the local economy by buying locally produced goods, thus cutting down on food mileage and supplying our guests with quality they deserve
  • We try to reduce packaging waste and recycle where possible
  • We try to reduce our use of chemical cleaning products

If you approve of what we are trying to do, you can help us by:-

  • Turning off lights, not leaving the TV. on standby and mobile phones switched off when leaving the room.
  • Please help us to reduce our ever increasing fuel bills by turning down the thermostats on the radiators if it is too hot rather than opening the window and heating the garden.
  • Please be careful of what you dispose of in the toilet and use the personal hygiene bags provided.
  • With the constant problem of water shortage please help us to save water by folding any unused towels and be kind enough to make it obvious the beds that have been used.
  • We are happy to direct you to the park and ride schemes in Bath or perhaps you would consider using the rail or bus network from Bradford-on-Avon

Fairtrade

At Great Ashley Farm we are proud to offer our guest FairTrade beverages. Fairtrade does what it says on the label; it guarantees a better deal to producers in the developing world.

  • This means a stable price which covers their production costs, along with a premium that their organisation will be able to reinvest either in the business or social and environmental schemes among the wider community.
  • Too many farmers in the developing world have to contend with fluctuating prices that may not even cover what it costs to produce their crop.
  • So Fairtrade can make a big impact on their day-to-day life. And on their future and that of their family.
