Penhein’s Environmental Policy
Mission Statement
Penhein Glamping recognises that it has a responsibility to the environment beyond legal and regulatory requirements. The glampsite, sitting as it does in the middle of a 450 acre farm, has been designed to have as little impact on the environment as possible, but we are committed to reducing our impact even further by continually improving our environmental performance as an integral part of our business strategy and operating methods.
