CARBON NEUTRAL - ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY. Twelve years ago we bought A 75+ hectare woodland that absorbs more than the total CO2 emissions from fuel used in our hostel and also the other properties in our small MacBackpackers hostel and bus co chain. We also try our best to re-cycle everything (with your help) and our electricity is all sourced from renewable non-nuclear supplies. Stay with us for a great holiday and minimal environmental impact!!!!
