Our environment statement

Reduce : Re-use : Recycle

We take our responsibility for preserving our environment seriously and being a Five Star Gold business we are committed to providing a quality experience whilst protecting our environment. We contribute in the following ways:

• We encourage our guests to enjoy the natural and cultural heritage of Scotland without impacting on the environment.  We strive to live and work in a sustainable way to ensure that future generations will also have the opportunity to experience this precious heritage.

• For example our towel change policy is displayed in our bathrooms where the shower heads are eco-friendly helping to reduce water usage.

• We will be able to recycle glass, paper, metal, plastic, cans, bottles and cardboard on your  behalf. We will help you to reduce, re-use and recycle whilst staying at Wyvis.

• All food waste is collected for recycling,  garden waste is composted and rain water is collected in our water butts for use in the garden and greenhouse.

• Energy saving light bulbs are used throughout to reduce our energy costs. All kitchen appliances are chosen because of their quality and low energy usage rating.

• Our modern central heating boiler is energy efficient and all radiators have individual thermostats. Full  deep insulation is installed througout the roof space and ceiling voids reducing lost heat to a minimum level.

• We have a selection of books on wildlife and binoculars are available for your use.

• We encourage you to use public transport wherever possible and have current bus and train timetables available on request.

• We can recommend itineraries that minimise the impact on the environment.

• We source all ingredients from local sources and we use produce from our garden whenever possible.
