Sustainability

Thoughtful hospitality in the High Country

At Peppers Marysville, we believe great stays and responsible practices go hand in hand. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the Yarra Valley Ranges and Victorian High Country, we are committed to reducing our environmental footprint while supporting our local community.

Our sustainability initiatives focus on practical, meaningful actions that make a genuine difference for our guests, our region and the environment.

Reducing Single-Use Plastics

As part of our commitment to lowering waste, Peppers Marysville has taken steps to significantly reduce single-use plastics across the hotel and event spaces.

This includes:

  • Removing plastic straws and unnecessary disposable plastics
  • Transitioning to eco-conscious guest room amenities
  • Using biodegradable or reusable cutlery where appropriate
  • Adopting more sustainable takeaway and catering packaging

By limiting single-use plastics, we aim to reduce landfill waste and minimise our impact on the pristine natural surrounds that make Marysville and the High Country so special.

Accessibility

Peppers Marysville is designed to be welcoming and accessible for all guests.

We offer:

  • Ground-floor accessible accommodation options
  • Spacious, accessible bathrooms
  • Ramped access and wide walkways across key public areas
  • Accessible entry to dining, leisure and event facilities

Our team is always available to assist with specific requirements to ensure every guest can enjoy a comfortable and seamless stay in Marysville.

Supporting Local & Seasonal Produce

Our culinary philosophy reflects the region we call home. At Andiamo Restaurant & Bar and across our meetings and events offering, we prioritise seasonal, locally sourced produce wherever possible.

Our approach includes:

  • Menus designed around fresh, regional ingredients
  • Supporting local growers and suppliers
  • Thoughtful sourcing to reduce food miles
  • Avoiding overfished species to support responsible seafood practices

By championing local produce, we not only enhance the dining experience for our guests, but also contribute to the resilience of Victoria’s High Country agricultural community.
