Wheatland Farm & Eco-Lodges is committed to sustainability and eco-friendly practices. The lodges and cottage are designed to reduce energy consumption and waste production, using renewable materials, insulation, natural ventilation and pellet stoves. The resort also uses solar panels, rainwater harvesting, composting toilets and organic products. The resort aims to preserve the natural beauty and biodiversity of the area, by managing 21 acres of land as a nature reserve. The resort also supports local businesses and suppliers, and partners with other environmental and social organisations. Wheatland Farm & Eco-Lodges has received several awards for its innovative and responsible concept, such as the Gold Award for Sustainable Tourism from Visit England and the Green Tourism Business Scheme. The resort is also part of the North Devon Biosphere Reserve, which is a UNESCO designated area that covers 55% of North Devon. The reserve is home to diverse habitats and species, such as coastal cliffs, sand dunes, moorlands, woodlands, rivers and wetlands. The resort follows the #GetNaturePositive campaign, which aims to restore nature and promote its benefits for people and the planet. The resort also participates in the Pledge for Nature initiative, which encourages actions such as planting trees, creating ponds, reducing plastic and supporting wildlife. The resort also has a rewilding project that started in 2006, which involves restoring culm grassland habitats and rare plants and animals on Popehouse Moor, a Site of Special Scientific Interest.
