We aim to minimise our impact on the environment wherever we can. We want to help create a sustainable future for the generations of people in front of us, and we’re committed to finding new ways to support the planet and community we’re part of. Here’s a taster of how.
We work closely with Biffa Waste Management, who, using their expertise and innovation are helping the UK on its path to a circular economy, while championing sustainable communities. Together we are transforming our waste into valuable resources and lessening its impact on the environment. Some of our key steps are:
Since September 2023, 100% of all our waste has been diverted from landfill. This waste has been recycled, sorted, or used to produce green energy.

As a pub focused on our local community, we thought it only right to make sure our suppliers are local too. Below are just some of them.
We have signs in all of our hotel rooms advising against water wastage to prevent the unnecessary washing of towels.
This helps both prevent unnecessary travelling, and benefits our local community.
We off a low flow option on all toilets to prevent water waste.
This results in less packaging, less plastic, and also less potential for multi-use items being wasted.
Our induction hob in our kitchen reduces gas usage in favour of greener electricity.
These are used throughout the pub to lower our overall energy usage. Accommodation lighting has also been changed to motion-activated lighting, in order to reduce energy consumption.
We are currently looking at viable options for the pub to increase our use of green energy.
We hope to soon be able to install our first EV charging points in our car park, for guests with electric and hybrid vehicles.
During our upcoming refurb, existing furniture will be assessed and upcycled where possible, thus helping reduce waste.
