Environmental, Sustainable and Social responsibility at the Dingle Skellig Hotel
Here at the Dingle Skellig Hotel our commitment to our responsibility to the environment, our planet and our community is at the heart of our values. Our aim is to understand, control, monitor and reduce our use of water and energy as well as reducing our production of waste.
We have implemented a number of actions within the hotel and each of our department heads lead their team on fostering and embracing these values.

We have reduced our print order of items and reuse waste paper in the offices.
Our wedding flowers, wedding menu covers and table décor are all reusable.
We employ a local workforce where possible with many staff relocating to Dingle and walking to work.
We buy local where possible to reduce food miles and keep our carbon footprint low. We ask suppliers to also be mindful of packaging and to reuse their packaging where possible.
