UK Cycling Holidays in England

Our Responsible Travel Policy
How this cycling holiday makes a difference

     Economic Responsibility

• Our main goal is to support local small businesses by sourcing as much as possible locally.
• Our staff all enjoy nature and the great outdoors, and try to inject some of their enthusiasm to others.
• We endeavour to place you, our guests, at the heart of the local community by dealing with small and medium sized family-run accommodation providers who in turn help support their local communities.
• We endeavour to favour accommodation providers that are registered with the Green Tourism Business Scheme and/or used locally sourced products.
• Whilst on holiday your fitness level increases. This will hopefully make less demand in the long run on the social and economic environment.

     Environmental Responsibility

• The company recycles envelopes, paper, and ink cartridges.
• We also refill ink cartridges and use low energy light bulbs.
• Paper which cannot be recycled is shredded and composted.
• All our company vehicles are capable of running on locally made bio-diesel.
• The vast majority of our communication is undertaken by email with only legally-binding documents being printed.
• We do not produce a paper-based brochure.
• We encourage you, our guests, to travel by public transport and to reuse plastic water bottles.
• Whilst on our cycling holidays you are reducing your carbon footprint by not using your car.

     Social Responsibility

• We encourage you to visit local pubs, restaurants and shops, and to sample locally grown/caught produce.
• Many of our holidays include visits to iconic local "green" and locally funded attractions, e.g. Eden Project, Geever Tin Mine, Gweek Seal Sanctuary, National Trust properties.

     Travellers Code of Conduct

• We encourage you to follow the well-known saying
  "take only photographs, leave only footprints".
• Relax and enjoy yourself whilst on our holiday, but we encourage you to respect the property and privacy of others.
