All about the Site and Farm
Lower Cresswell is a Georgian farm set in 36 acres of beautiful pastures, and ancient woodland, with Herdwick sheep, Welsh and Saddleback pigs, goats, and a range of chickens and waterfowl.
So whats so Environmentally Friendly ?
A Tree Planted For Every Booking
Part of your fee goes towards planting a tree to off-set against some of your carbon footprint and help Climate change. So far here at Big Barn Camping 580 sapling trees have been planted on the farm since August 2018 creating new woodland and hedgerows which is a fantastic step in the right direction to reduce Climate change and helping wildlife.
Composting Toilets & Sola Lighting
Composting toilets use shavings instead of water so save 13 litres against each toilet flush, the ultimate eco friendly water saving toilet. All lights on site are sola so remember to switch that light off.
Correct Recycling
Recycling is on everyones agenda so having an active recycling plan is very important.
Please do take pride and recycle correctly during your stay using the recycling bins .
Trying to save water
When showering if you turn the water off while using soap/shower gel and then back on to wash clean you will be saving quite a lot of water instead of leaving the shower water running all the time.
