ECO PUB

We are located in an area of outstanding natural beauty AONB, with wildlife that rare and only found in abundance on the clifts surrounding East Prawle. Our aim with this initiative is to try to cut down on our waste and become as environmentally friendly as much as possible.
Not only that but try to inform others about how they can do their bit to also make a difference to our lives and our future.
Just walking along the cliffs and seeing so much waste on our beaches and hedges inspired me to create this initiative.
