Visitors Green Charter
Getting involved with looking after our environment
Welcome to Tranwell Farm, where we strive to create sustainable and eco-friendly holidays. As responsible travelers, we invite you to join us in minimizing our environmental impact and reducing our carbon footprint during your stay. Here are some simple yet impactful ways you can help make your holiday greener:
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
-
Say ‘No!’ to the plastic bag! Bring your own reusable one or reuse an old plastic bag. Aim to buy items with less packaging to reduce waste.
-
Make use of our recycling bins on-site to recycle your paper, cardboard, plastic, cans, and tins. Let's work together to minimize landfill waste.
-
Consider traveling by foot or by bus during your explorations. Check out our contact us page for detailed information about public transport options in the area.
-
Embrace the concept of "Buy Local." Morpeth boasts numerous wonderful independent shops and delicatessens, offering locally sourced products. Don't miss the opportunity to try our own rare breed Northumbrian lamb, or explore the offerings at the farmers market regularly held in the town square.
-
Support other Green Tourism Businesses. We are proud members of the Greener Camping Club, which promotes sustainable practices across a network of sites throughout the UK. Let's support businesses that share our commitment to environmental stewardship.
-
Take part in our wildlife watch. Share your sightings of local flora and fauna with us! From hares and deer to woodpeckers and badgers, Tranwell Farm is teeming with biodiversity waiting to be discovered. Your observations contribute to our understanding and conservation efforts.
-
Conserve energy and water during your stay. Turn off lights and appliances when not in use, and be mindful of water consumption.
-
Respect nature and wildlife. Avoid disturbing natural habitats and wildlife, and follow designated paths during outdoor activities.
By adopting these practices, you're not only enhancing your holiday experience but also contributing to the preservation of our planet for future generations. Thank you for your commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship. Together, we can make a difference!
