Water Hygiene & Ventilation Compliance at Lympne Castle

Set across 145 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds overlooking the English Channel, Lympne Castle is one of England’s oldest landmarks, dating back to 1080. Operating as a premier destination for restaurants, luxury accommodation, weddings, and exclusive events, maintaining impeccable health, safety, and environmental standards is paramount. Clean Air UK has partnered with the estate to deliver robust water hygiene and kitchen ventilation compliance solutions.
