🌱🏡 Good news from one of Buxton's favourite places to stay!

Over the past three months, Ashleigh Buxton - Luxury Guest Rooms & Exclusive Self-Catering Apartments has been making some impressive eco-friendly improvements to help reduce its carbon footprint and create a more sustainable stay for guests.

The beautiful Victorian property has discreetly installed 🔌 EV charging facilities ⚡ and added 6kW of solar panels ☀️ to help generate renewable energy. They've also swapped plastic and cardboard packaging for locally delivered milk and eggs from the milkman 🥛🥚, reducing waste and supporting local suppliers at the same time.

It's fantastic to see local businesses investing in a greener future while continuing to offer a luxury experience for visitors to Buxton. 👏

Would environmentally friendly features like EV charging and solar power influence where you choose to stay? Let us know in the comments! 👇
