Eco Policy

Environmental Policy

Tiny Homes Holidays was founded on a desire to create a slower and more mindful holiday experience.

Tiny Homes recognises that it has a responsibility to the environment beyond legal requirements.  Environmental impact was of the utmost importance when designing each tiny home.  Measures such as solar panels, eco toilets, log burners and reed bed filtration plus environmentally  sustainable insulation methods were included to make the tiny homes as energy efficient as possible, whilst still providing a comfortable stay.  Local materials were used where possible and where possible are recycled.

Monitoring and improving our environmental performance is a key part of our business strategy and we actively look for ways to do so.  Our staff are trained and committed to reducing our environmental impact and through our information packs we encourage guests to do the same.
