Green Leaf Award Accommodation
Green Leaf aims to make the New Forest the UK’s greenest destination. This page promotes New Forest accommodation providers which are working hard to improve their responsible and eco-friendly business operation and visitor experiences. They have all achieved either a Gold, Silver or Bronze Green Leaf Award by completing Go New Forest's Green Leaf checklist of responsible and sustainable actions.
The checklist covers eight categories; Responsible Travel, Responsible Visiting, Food & Local Produce, Energy Efficiency, Waste, Water & Re-cycling, Land Use & Nature Conservation, Visitor Stewardship (the New Forest Code) and Supporting Local Business.
27 local accommodation providers have already completed this process. You can view all of these below and find out more about what actions they are taking on their product page (see Green Leaf Details under 'Further Information' heading on individual business webpages).
The Green Leaf Scheme is designed to enable as many local businesses as possible to move on to the international B Corp certification process. The New Forest has a wonderful Go New Forest Member, Green Hill Farm Holiday Village, who have already achieved B Corp status.
In 2023, we won the Simpleview 'Best Showcase of Sustainability' Award!
