Here at Wild Atlantic Camp Creeslough we are committed to keeping our business as green as possible.
As a business we are very lucky to have had the options at the time of set-up to make specifically sustainable choices on how our business is run. As we grow overtime we will do our best.
WASTE
We aim to reduce the amount of waste and we plan to do this by informing our visitors of our strict recycling policy at our site and through staff training on sustainability.
– Reduce: Non-recyclable waste is kept to a minimum.
– Recycle: All waste is separated and recyclables are handled by our local recycling plant.
– Some smaller steps we have taken since last year: switched to compostable coffee cups
– Onsite we have a separate Chemical toilet for touring guests to dispose of toilet waste, and a separate waste disposal for grey water.
ENERGY
Lighting – we use low energy bulbs throughout our property.
– We use motion sensor lighting in our communal bathrooms.
– When purchasing and replacing electrical equipment, A-rated appliances are sourced.
– Our outdoor lighting is set to a timer which is adjusted with the time of year to reduce both energy consumption.
– On request towel and linen change policy – which aims to reduce water and energy consumption, allowing our guests to choose their own balance between staying green.
– Minimal post sent – we have an online and reservation system and send the majority of our confirmations and information by email and social media to reduce the amount of paper used.
– Guest information is all via our website, and on our guests digital information app.
