our yurts are fully equipped for the best glamping experience Inside one of the yurts is everything you will need for a cosy night’s sleep. There is a comfy double bed and set of bunkbeds. In the other connected yurt is a living area, complete with dining area, seating, large sink and a wood burner. There is also a double sofa bed.

our organic farm shop is a short walk away, where you can purchase delicious local produce to prepare in the yurts
our yurts are designed to help you reconnect with nature, with your loved ones and yourself They are well and truly off-grid.
