At Classic Cottages, the love we have for our environment is founded on a deep awe and respect. With so many of us reaping the benefits of the beautiful landscapes that surround us, we believe it's important to put as much back in as we receive. That's why we've established the Classic Green Scheme, to help protect, preserve and raise awareness of sustainability both within our industry and on a greater platform. Amongst our 34 eco holiday cottages, you will find a range of beautiful properties in equally beautiful locations. From buying local produce for the welcome tray to subscribing to green energy tariffs and installing efficient heating systems, our eco owners go the extra mile to provide luxury accommodation and look after our environment.
