Fair Trade

Our Aims

This page may be something of a suprise to you, but here we speak about our ethics, and how they impact what we provide in our cottage.

Our Aims

 
Our Aims
  • We are strong supporters of the environment. For that reason we aim to use bio-degradable cleaning products in our cottage where feasible and provide a comprehensive option for you to recycle.
  • We believe in the quality and environmental value of local food. To that end we will endeavour to provide you with a list of local suppliers and farmers markets where if you choose you can source good quality ingredients. For farmers markets follow this link. Some of the shops in the village also offer local food products.
  • We believe in Fair Trade , we are fortunate that the main supermarket in Whitby is the Co-op which offers a selection of fair trade options. We will also seek to offer you alternative fair trade sources. (See our Fair and Local page )
  • We acknowledge that many people who holiday require special diets. We have good knowledge of this, and to that end provide ample freezer space and can offer guidance on where and what suitable foods can be acquired in the area.
