Our Sustainability Commitments

We try to be as sustainable as possible at Stockton House. Our heating and water is heated by using a wood chip boiler with wood chip being provided from felling on the Apley Estate. We were conscious when choosing our carpets for the bedrooms and sourced ones made from recycled plastics where are both durable, luxurious and super easy to clean and maintain.
