Why choose an eco-friendly holiday cottage?

A holiday doesn't have to mean leaving your environmental values at home. Choosing sustainable accommodation can be a simple way to reduce the impact of your trip while still enjoying everything that makes a Welsh countryside holiday special.

At Cambrian Cottages, we've designed our accommodation with both comfort and sustainability in mind. You can enjoy a peaceful rural break, explore the countryside on foot or by bike, charge your electric vehicle on site and discover the natural beauty of West Wales.

Our approach to sustainability

Sustainability isn't simply something we mention in our marketing. It is an important part of how Cambrian Cottages is run, essential to our Green Tourism Gold accreditation.

We have taken practical steps across the property to reduce our environmental impact and encourage wildlife and biodiversity.

Renewable energy

We use renewable energy as part of our commitment to reducing our carbon footprint. Using renewable energy helps us make our cottages more sustainable while allowing guests to enjoy modern, comfortable accommodation.

Sustainable building

Our cottages have been created with sustainability and the character of the surrounding countryside in mind. Where possible, we’ve used natural and sustainable materials to retain and enhance the character of the original barn.

Biodiversity and wildlife

The former farm provides an important habitat for wildlife, and we’re committed to encouraging biodiversity across the property. We want the countryside around the cottages to remain a beautiful and healthy environment for future generations.

EV Charging

Guests travelling by electric car can use our 7.2kW EV charger on site which is available at an additional cost. This makes it easier to explore Wales by electric vehicle without relying entirely on public charging points.

Find out more about EV charging at Cambrian Cottages on our EV Charging Holiday Cottages page.
