Circular

The bath and body products in every room – as well as those our Swim Club therapists use – are by sustainable British brand, land&water. Its natural, ethical and vegan recipes come in 100% recycled bottles made from Prevented Ocean Plastics. In the first half of 2023, land&water repurposed 600kg of salvaged ocean plastic in their bottles; a figure that’s only set to grow. But in the hotel, we only replace their 250ml bottles if they get damaged through heavy repeated use – otherwise we refill them using land&water’s 5L refill packs to minimise packaging.

We sandblasted old chair frames and reused table tops for the recent Living Space refresh, and used reclaimed timber, recycled tiles and a recycled plastic bottle carpet feature in our beach lofts. But when we do need to replace items, we make sure they have meaningful use elsewhere.

We regularly support local community group St Blazey C.I.C, who have found a new home for everything from beds, duvets, outdoor furniture and travel cots, to desk lamps, chairs and photo frames. We’ve also donated chairs and tables to Newquay Orchard, who use them to make their volunteers happier with comfier breaktime spaces. 

Local Cornish artist Kate at Flotsam Flo is on our gold star list. While others might give up on these non-recyclable materials, Kate rescues them to ensure they’re given a colourful new lease of life. Look out for our Flotsam Flo Biffa Bin on Sea Lane for discarding any broken beach items for Kate to work her magic and sell in her online shop – a true circular business.
