![Green Badge Award]()
Appin Holiday Homes proudly sports our Green Badge, as a park planned and run with the environment in mind. It earns its credentials in the following key areas:
Energy Efficiency all external and some internal lights are fitted with low energy light bulbs. The lodges are extremely well insulated and all new caravans come with energy efficient appliances.
Recycling glass, paper, and plastic are recycled, and there are leaflets inside the holiday homes asking visitors to separate recyclables. The bin bags are sifted manually to extract any recyclables. Food waste is composted.
Water Conservation Appin Holiday Homes no longer have hanging baskets due to the amount of water they consumed.
Social Practices all staff are local and are picked up collectively to save on car fuel. The park owners support and help run the local junior football team and are involved in the local show.
Wildlife there are many varieties of plants and animals on site and there are some very rare butterflies in the neighbourhood. Some areas are not mown to encourage wildflower growth. Wildlife on site also includes pine martins, deer, otters, owls, hawks, field mice, and voles.
Purchasing Policy All electrical consumables are purchased from small local shops. Bin bags are bought from a charity in bulk and eco friendly cleaning products are used.
