New Forest Escapes

Role in programme(s):

Commitments:

We became a BCorp in March 22, but since 2010 the female-led team have paved the way in luxury New Forest staycation tourism. They provide self-catering houses - each is presented with something special and quirky enough to tempt people away from flying and into staycations. The brand focuses on redefining 'luxury' away from 1980's ideals and into a modern, integral meaning, including the basics: local, and seasonal. Inspiring 'education touch-points' are crafted into all communications to encourage people into future-focused, climate-friendly behaviours. Owners are encouraged to green-up their houses and support local businesses. Guests are encouraged to immerse themselves in the slow/local life, embrace nature, and support sustainability-goals on their travels. The brand gives particular emphasis to inspiring people through story-telling; interviewing local food heroes and spending-green. The directors believe that the business is an effective platform to catalyse and lead change, and often the first to roll their sleeves up and get involved. Our future vision is collaborative, upbeat and positive. Find out more www.newforestescapes.com
