| At Cadson, we care immensely about the environment
and are committed to preserving the beautiful breath-taking surroundings
in which we live. To ensure we do this, we undertake the following
actions so that it can be enjoyed by future generations and our guests:- |
| • |
We comply with the requirements of environmental
legislation and approved codes of practice. |
| • |
Cadson is a member of Coast Cornwall Sustainable
Tourism Project. |
| • |
We support local food producers, restaurants, pubs
and tourist attractions, along with shops and transport. We believe
in buying locally wherever possible to reduce packaging and road mileage,
and if not available, we support Fair Trade products. |
| • |
We use scrap paper for note paper and re-use old
envelopes. |
| • |
We reduce, re-use and recycle as much as possible
too. |
| • |
We use the jute coast bags when shopping and encourage
our self catering guests to do so. |
| • |
Cadson has a strictly no smoking policy. |
| • |
All bedrooms have energy saving light bulbs and
individually controlled radiators to conserve energy. |
| • |
We use eco friendly cleaning products and minimise
the number of towels washed by asking our guests to re-use. |
| • |
Information is available to guests for home deliveries
of shopping. We are fortunate to have so many small local producers
of award winning food in Cornwall who also deliver. |
| • |
A farmers market is held in Callington Town Hall
every fortnight. |
 |
 |
W e have received a Green Acorn Award in recognition
of the measures that we take to reduce the impact of our business,
and that of our guests, on the environment. Encourage our visitors
to look around the immediate area, rather than driving for miles and
miles. |
| We compost all organic
matter, and source sustainable alternatives wherever possible, and
use our local Council pick up every two weeks for all our small recycled
items such as glass, paper, tins plastics etc. |
