Sustainability
S
We recycle and encourage recycling by providing recycling bins;
We plant trees, flowers, aromatic plants and preserve native species;
We don't use pesticides;
We store rainwater for our garden; We use drip irrigation and soil enriched with manure from the farm animals;
We continue to reduce our lawn areas to save spring water;
Our animals roam freely in the countryside, also feeding on what nature offers them;
We encourage our guests to manage the spring water supply in a balanced way, to choose not to change their towels every day and not to clean their rooms every day, in order to help us reduce our consumption of water and detergents;
Guests can pick vegetables from our garden, feed our donkey Cacau, collect eggs from the chicken, go for a walk with our dog Fred on a trail in the property or stroke our cat Orelhas, who loves cuddles;
We have replaced disposable products with dispensers;
Electricity saved through the use of class A+ inverter air conditioning, led light bulbs and utilisation of natural light;
Exterior lighting is produced using small solar panels and activated by sensors;
