Sustainability
For over four centuries, Rothiemurchus has been dedicated to fostering a sustainable community. Our mission revolves around nurturing harmonious relationships between people and nature. For millennia, humans have supported the forest, and in turn, the forest has sustained the community.
The wild charm of our landscape is a result of three centuries of traditional forestry, which has cultivated a rich diversity of plants and animals. Today, we embrace change with a forward-thinking approach, always with respect for our environment, our communities, and our heritage.
Our re-established self-catering cottages make great efforts towards sustainability, including:
Recent restoration with improved insulation
Biodegradable, organic, recycled consumables
Durable infrastructure – energy ratings are stated online
Promotions for guests to ‘shop local’
