Unique Sustainable Accommodation in Dorset

Have you changed your holiday plans because you want to make sure that any break you book has a low impact on the planet? If you’re forgoing flights to the sun and want a sustainable holiday this year, read on to find out a little more about how the day runs at Chesil Beach Lodge to make sure that your holiday is eco-friendly.

Starting the day with a great breakfast? You’ll be pleased to know that we source as much food from the local area as possible.

While you’re off out and about, we’re cleaning up. Once we’ve cleaned your room with eco-friendly products we put used towels and sheets into wash ... with eco-friendly laundry liquid. And it is all hung out to dry on the washing line in the summer.

We recycle waste and separate out glass bottles, tin cans, paper and plastic bottles for roadside collection. We provide re-cycling bags in self-catering apartments.

And as the evening draws in, we switch on energy efficient light bulbs and we encourage guests to switch off TV’s rather than leave on stand-by.

Reduce, Recycle, Reuse: three key ideas to help save the planet that are a key part of what goes on at Chesil Beach Lodge as part of our efforts to ensure that you have an eco friendly holiday in the UK.
