The Bay Boutique Bed and Breakfast, a harmonious blend of vintage charm and modern sustainability, truly stands as an emblem of eco-friendly hospitality. It is a gem restored meticulously over two years, with the guiding principle being eco-consciousness. This commitment is reflected in every facet of the property. Solar panels adorn the property, powering electricity, heating, and hot water, thereby reducing the carbon footprint.
Incorporating LEDs for illumination, this establishment further prioritizes energy efficiency. Sensor-based lighting systems ensure that energy usage is optimal, with lights only being on when necessary. Alongside these advanced eco-friendly features, The Bay Boutique Bed and Breakfast has also conserved the original Victorian period attributes, creating a unique fusion of historical elegance and modern sustainability. This significant effort has earned it a Gold standard GreenLeaders certification, marking it as a top choice for environmentally conscious travelers.
