Feeling flush?
At Berrington we're working on many projects to reduce our energy consumption and increase recycling and making our waste zero to landfill.
For example with around 90,000 visitors a year equating to 90,000 flushes of clean drinking water going down the toilet we have come up with an ingenious idea. Berrington has an old well in the courtyard over 6 metres deep which now provides 'grey' water to the toilets - perfect for flushing the loos.
We are also currently excited to announce that we will be updating these facilities for our visitors from 17 September 2018. For this reason the main toilets will be unavailable until October, however there will be alternative toilets available.
We try to reduce our energy consumption in lots of small ways too; low energy light bulbs, energy efficient appliances, door closers, timers and the like. We are also working towards sending nothing to landfill by recycling as much as possible.
