Access Statement and Environmental Information
Introduction
The self catering cottage is the result of a conversion of an old agricultural building based on our smallholding in the Cotswolds. We have tried to provide as much information as possible in this statement, if you have any queries please do call. We look forward to welcoming you.
Pre Arrival
We have a basic website.
Bookings/enquiries can be made via email or phone.
Arrival and Car Parking Facilities
There is ample car parking space next to the cottage.
Car park is level and is paved and gravel.
General information
Custard Cottage is decorated in a neutral colour scheme and is carpeted/tiled throughout. There are two smoke alarms fitted in the cottages. All bedding provided is cotton and duvets and pillows are non feather.
There is large areas of lawn for guests use, some of which is flat and some of which has a slight bank thereon. There is outdoor garden furniture.
The cottage is no smoking and we regret that pets are not allowed.
The nearest shops are in the village of Mickleton which is just under 1 mile from the cottage.
The cottage is situated in a rural location and vehicular transport is advisable, although a taxi service is available in the locality.
Mobile phone reception does vary depending on your provider.
Environmental Information
Green Laundry
Green Laundry Practice: We encourage our guests to follow a green laundry practice. The following measures may help:
1. Please use eco-friendly washing powders - phosphate free. A supply can be found in the cleaning cupboard below the sink.
2. Please use low wash temperatures and full loads where possible to save energy.
3. Please peg out washing when conditions permit.
4. Please put unused towels in a separate pile to used towels so that staff can establish which need washing.
If you have any queries on the green laundry practice please feel free to discuss these with us.
Here are some of the things that we are already doing:
Waste/Recycling
We recycle glass, paper, tins, cardboard, milk/fruit juice cartons and plastic
Wherever possible, we use email and telephone, rather than paper
We recycle our used printer cartridges
We provide our guests with a separate container in which to place all kitchen waste.
We supply our guests with recycled toilet paper and kitchen paper for use during their stay
Purchasing
Wherever possible, we use local suppliers. Our holiday cottage renovations were undertaken by local builders, architects and craftsmen
We offer local suppliers the opportunity to match prices we have received elsewhere
We buy in bulk to reduce packaging waste
Transport
We provide guests with information on local transport, and a place where they can lock bicycles up safely
We have lots of information on "walks from the door" to give guests the choice of a car free break or holiday.
We offer to arrange collection of guests arriving from nearby train and bus stations
How about you, our guests?
We can work together to make less of an impact on our surroundings and we ask our guests to do the following:
Use our recycling facilities: Reduce, Re-use and Recycle
Please try and use as little water as possible
Only turn heating up higher if necessary
Follow the instructions regarding the septic tanks; chemicals kill the natural cleaning cycle
Buy products with less packaging
Respect the Country Code, and dispose of litter carefully
Buy local food and services whilst you are here. This supports the local community that you have come to visit and reduces food miles
Enjoy the wide range of beautiful walks right on your doorstep at Sarah’s Cottages
Bring your bikes - we have secure bike storage
