Avon Tyrrell Update
17 May 2010

Well the Geese are back and Avon Tyrrell is busy and the weather has been so good that we actually would like a little rain just to water the site foliage, preferably on a Sunday afternoon or Monday morning when it won’t spoil the stay of guests.

We can finally tell you that our reed bed is now complete and the 1000 reeds are busy doing what reeds must do to help clean the discharge from our sewage plant. This also represents the completion of two very ‘Eco Friendly’ projects in the past year, the other being our straw bale classroom and sensory garden.

We have not finished there either as in the next week we will also be installing two further composting toilets making a total of three onsite.

The Housekeeping and Maintenance Team are also working hard on improving the House Bedrooms to ensure they are more welcoming for those guests that use the Grade I Listed Avon Tyrrell House during their stay. We have spent the winter making the lodges more comfortable and welcoming.
