Our Impact

At Castle Leslie Estate, we believe that sustainable tourism is tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social, and environmental impacts while addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment, and host communities (UNWTO, n.d.). We therefore aim to reduce our negative effects and increase our positive impacts. We strive to protect and enhance the environment and wildlife within the estate wall while retaining the historical home of the Leslie Family. That our guests find a refuge here from the outside world, a tranquil timeless atmosphere, wonderful staff, exceptional food, and discernible charm. We hope they leave here relaxed with a better understanding of the importance of the survival of historical buildings such as Castle Leslie. For our staff we aim to provide a healthy, happy, working team environment without which the above cannot be achieved.
