Here at AberGlamping we are passionate about the environment and endeavor to reduce our carbon footprint and make our business as sustainable as possible. Aiming to reduce waste, protect our wildlife and work with our community and local producers. 
AberGlamping is a new glamping business based on a traditional Welsh family farm. We have chosen to keep the site small (four units) to ensure there is very little impact on the local environment. We take our responsibility for the environments seriously and have measures in place to ensure that our sustainable tourism venture has minimum impact on our beautiful site here in the Brecon Beacons.

​

Energy use:
-All lighting is either powered by solar or USB rechargeable.
-We have alternative renewable energy sources in the farm: solar panels, biomass boiler and a micro hydro system. Any surplus energy is exported back to the grid. 
-We provide limited outdoor lighting to avoid light pollution and keep the site looking as natural as possible. 

Supplies and materials:
-You can buy locally sourced products in our on site shop, We buy from local suppliers when we can.

-We make bulk orders of cleaning products to reduce road miles and packaging, refilling bottles rather than providing new.
-We use eco washing powder to wash our sheets and towels.
