House rules

Visits to Open Eco Homes happen thanks to the kindness and generosity of the householders. Please be respectful at all times and observe some basic rules:

  • Please note that some of the houses featured are currently having building work done on them and so take care when visiting.
  • Please be aware that at some homes you may be asked to remove your shoes.
  • Children must be supervised by an adult.
  • Sorry, no dogs (please ask householder for permission to admit guide dogs).
  • We encourage everyone to travel to each house by bicycle or public transport.

Remember: Please print the relevant case studies and take them with you on your tours if you wish to have a copy on hand.
