We are committed to reducing our energy consumption through the use of energy-efficient lighting, appliances, and heating systems. Our hotel is equipped with smart technology to monitor and manage energy use, so we can ensure unnecessary energy is not being used in rooms that aren’t occupied.
During the stages of renovation, we extended the original building and installed solar panels on the roof, this generates most of our own renewable energy. The kitchen where Morecambe Bay Chowder Co craft up their spectacular chowder is also fully electric, powered by solar and supplemented by green energy tariff when needed.

Did you know that millions of gallons of water is used every day to wash hotel towels and linen. In a bid to reduce our carbon footprint, we encourage guests to take part in our towel and linen reuse program to reduce water usage. This means that towels that are not specified as wanting to be replaced will simply be reused. Guests who are staying with us a little longer will have a full bed linen and towel change after every 3rd night of their stay.

We operate a one in and one out method for all of our laundry orders meaning whatever is used the exact amount is returned to us, we also aim for only one laundry delivery per week, meaning we are never over ordering and reducing on mileage and carbon emissions for deliveries.

We strive to minimise waste by implementing a comprehensive recycling programme with Cumbria Waste Management. Single-use plastics have been significantly reduced where possible, and we opt for eco-friendly products and packaging whenever possible. At The Bath Tap, we use eco-friendly and biodegradable straws, along with 100% recycled napkins.

We are proud to support local businesses and suppliers by sourcing products locally for The Bath Tap. We aim for around 70% of our draught beers to be locally brewed within the North West and our taps feature cask ales and beers from just down the road in Lancaster, Cockerham and Galgate but also slightly further to Kendal, Bowness and Grange-over-Sands. This not only reduces the mileage the beer has to travel to us, reducing carbon emissions and helping the planet, but also supports local independent businesses and the local economy as a whole.

We have partnered with Morecambe Bay Chowder to bring their amazing coastal comfort food to The Bath Tap, their purpose is to celebrate the produce of Morecambe Bay. Serving locally caught Haddock in their Morecambe Bay chowder, alongside their Cumbrian chicken chowder with optional toppings of Morecambe Bay Shrimp, Smokehouse bacon from The Port of Lancaster and freshly baked sourdough from Lovingly Artisan bakery in Kendal. All served in locally handcrafted bowls from MilkPail Pottery in Scorton, just outside of Lancaster.

To reduce our carbon footprint, we have provided a handy travel guide for all guests to use eco-friendly transportation options. We are conveniently located near public transport links, with Morecambe Train Station and Bus Station a short walk away. The guide also highlights day trips and options further afield that can be reached using public transport such as to Lancaster, The Lakes, Manchester, Liverpool and even up to Scotland. Additionally, we offer information on local walking and cycling routes to explore Morecambe sustainably, including popular bay walking trails and the Way of the Roses cycle route.

Sustainability is a constant journey, and we are committed to continuously improving our environmental practices in the future. Even though we are a new business we will continue to consider and seek new ways that we can enhance our sustainability efforts.
Thank you for supporting our commitment to sustainability at The Bath, Morecambe. Together, we can make a positive impact on our environment and create a better future for everyone.
