Eco friendly Cleaning

As part of our commitment to the environment, we have always used eco friendly cleaners wherever possible and encouraged our guests to try them in the cottage, in the hope that they'll (you'll) get hooked and then use them at home.

We are aware though that in this tight economic climate you may be tempted to go for "cheaper" non-eco friendly alternatives so I have been trialling simple to make natural alternatives which cost even less. 
The first of these is " a general cleaner" below -
As always, be careful when trying a new product or ingredient in your home. Test the cleaner in a small area first, especially on rugs and carpets, which could stain permanently.

For most household cleaning, use a simple mix of white vinegar and water in a spray bottle   to remove dirt and germs. You can use this mixture to clean windows, floors, and countertops

I'll be trialling this over the next few weeks to clean the windows, floors and work services - I'll let you know how I get on.
