Bulworthy, the initiative that plants a tree for every night you stay in its cabin

Anonim

Traveling inspires us and sometimes it can inspire us so much that we decide to undertake new projects and embark on a journey. That's exactly what happened to **Anna and Pete when they started traveling in a caravan through the corners of the United Kingdom **: they decided to buy land, build a cabin and thus start the bulworthy project .

What is? An experiment of low environmental impact dedicated to preserving a forest habitat of 5 hectares in Tiverton (west of London). Anna and Pete have always been involved in environmental protests, their philosophy led them to create a nature reserve to protect wildlife and build a cabin for people looking to unwind Of the routine.

In 2006 they bought the land and since they were quite degraded by the previous management, they decided to start a recovery process. They enlisted the advice of expert organizations and drew up a plan to improve the forest in an ecological way.

Three years later - design and redesign in between - they managed to move. It has been quite a challenge, especially because of the construction permits they had to obtain, but all that effort led to them being awarded a Devon Wildlife Trust award for the benefits they have generated for wildlife and the environment.

Currently, they make their own firewood, dedicate themselves to giving courses or events and offer a experience in a sustainable cabin built by themselves, in an extremely quiet habitat, where the only neighbors you will be able to cross will be Anna or Pete.

The appearance is somewhat rustic outside and inside, somewhat more ostentatious, It has a double bed and even Wi-Fi , although guests have the option to turn it off if they wish to disconnect from the outside world during their stay.

They will continue to plant trees indefinitely until there are no more holes available

They will continue to plant trees indefinitely, until there are no more spaces available.

Its creators have determined that every time a night is reserved, they will plant a tree and they will continue to do so indefinitely, until there are no more places to plant and they have to find new holes to do so.

Such has been the success of their events that in 2019 they have run out of places and they are already preparing news for the coming year: from courses that teach how to make charcoal to an experience in the forest that they will soon give more details about on their website.

If you are looking for innovative gifts or want to immerse yourself in an environment surrounded by nature How about a night in Tiverton? They have gift cards for those who want to give away a night in a luxury cabin and collaborate with the project.
