Environmental Responsibility

Virgin Limited Edition is proud to have taken steps at all properties to reduce any negative environmental impact, and Mont Rochelle is no exception. Mont Rochelle operates a plastic straw free existence at all properties and opts for paper or bamboo straws instead. The introduction of water filter machines and reusable bottles has meant that the use of single use plastic bottles have been reduced by 100% at all properties.
