A note from the site themselves...

The campsite (and indeed the island itself) can't help but make you feel at one with nature. On arrival, you'll instantly slow down and embrace the simpler way of life. The campsite has a feeling of the wilderness and its eco-credentials help you to know that you're supporting nature and not competing with it.
