Eco Conscious Rotary

Wed, Sep 4th 2013 at 12:00 am - 2:00 am

Members and partners visited the new eco house of Neil Gourlay.


Rotarians and friends of the Thornhill and District Club recently travelled to Moniaive where they sampled the luxury eco-experience on offer at Three Glens House - as guests of owners Neil and Mary Gourlay.
The group were treated to a guided tour of the house by Neil and Mary who were very keen to explain the subtle use of technology throughout the house; the energy efficient harnessing of wind power; the use of fuel from sustainable sources; the careful attention to maximising the use of available sunlight; the extensive use of reclaimed and recycled fittings and materials throughout the house; and many other unique green features.
Neil, Green Energy Farmer of the Year 2011, also explained how he proposed to market the house as a luxury catered holiday getaway accommodation where guests would experience a unique slant on sustainable living.
The visit was topped off by a splendid buffet provided by Mary and her staff.
On thanking Neil and Mary, Rotary President Graeme Geddes said
