Sustainable Holidays at Bryn Elltyd Eco Self Catering
Welcome to Bryn Elltyd Eco Self Catering, where we believe you can enjoy a holiday while also protecting the environment. Our self-catering accommodation is 100% Carbon Neutral, powered by renewable energy since 2013. We source all our energy from renewable sources, including heating, electric, Wi-Fi, and even 3 car charge points!
Our 1883 stone building on a Welsh mountain may be over a century old, but it's equipped with the latest technology to make your stay comfortable and eco-friendly. We've passed several on-site assessments, including the Green Dragon Environment Standard Welsh eco-scheme, Green Tourism UK eco-scheme (Gold award twice), and Superhomes (UK eco-organization looking at energy use in older homes).
We're proud to use local produce, including seasonal fruits and vegetables grown in rich composted soil. We also use local free-range eggs and our own duck eggs for a truly unique and sustainable breakfast experience. Our furniture and decor are upcycled from materials within a mile of our location, supporting local shops and businesses.
Our self-catering accommodation features renewable energy sources, including a computer-controlled biomass central heating system integrated with solar panel water arrays, two huge solar water heating arrays, and solar electric panels. We also have an efficient log burner fueled by local logs or timber from our own 1-acre garden.
Our insulation design has been carefully crafted to reduce the building's energy consumption, including extra external and internal insulation, sheep's wool insulation, and turf roofs/sedum green roofs. We've also implemented rainwater capture systems for toilet flushing and allotment watering, and our sewage system uses a chamber biological system filtered by a reed bed into our duck pond.
At Bryn Elltyd Eco Self Catering, we're committed to protecting the environment. We recycle and repair as much as possible, use environmentally friendly cleaning products, and source 80% of our supplies within 13 miles of our location. We're also proud to be a Fairtrade business, using 100% Fairtrade tea and coffee and other Fairtrade products where possible.
Book your stay with us and experience a sustainable holiday that doesn't compromise on comfort or luxury.
