First Organic Hotel in Wales

The first organic hotel in Wales has opened for business in St David's in Pembrokeshire. The TYF Eco Hotel opened its doors for guests on 23rd August 2007. Based in a converted windmill, the intimate 12-bedroom TYF Eco Hotel has been granted organic certification from the Welsh Organic Scheme. This means that almost all the food and drink served in the hotel is guaranteed organic, and inspectors from the Welsh Organic Scheme will visit the hotel several times a year to ensure that standards are maintained.

How about here in the US? Any of our readers know of hotels or B&B's that provide mainly organic meals?

And stay tuned - there's a B&B opening in Ridgefield with an organic oriented attitude.
