We provide the Yurt (built over a carpeted, raised wooden floor) with an oak, lockable door: a double bed with duvet and sheets, pillows and pillowcases: two armchairs inside: two Adirondack chairs for lounging outside: glasses, cutlery and crockery for two with a selection of kitchen kit: a roaster/bbq with gas ring (gas included): side table and kitchen prep/storage station.
You have exclusive use of our Shepherd's Hut "Cludgey" (pictured below right) alongside - with shower, hand basin and toilet. You can wander into the wood and collect deadwood for the firepit if you fancy a fireside evening under the stars, though you can remove the central roofcap and get much the same view from the yurt itself. Incidentally, we have very little light pollution here: under clear skies, you'll see stars like you've never seen before if you live in town.
The Yurt has 12v lighting via solar cells and battery storage. It also has a sweet little woodburner stove, easy to light and a novel way of boiling the kettle for a morning cuppa as well as providing warmth if the evening is chilly.
You can drive over the grass right up to your door if you want to. You'll bring your own towels, your own food/drink (and your own bottled water for drinking though we always put a couple of litres in for a start) in a coolbox and, hopefully, the fine weather.
We have good pubs around, the best just about walkable - but none within easy walking distance for eating out. Chris and Sheila both love cooking and can provide dinner and drinks for a special occasion brought to your door by prior arrangement if you'd rather not travel. We can bring you breakfasts if you'd rather not get out of bed. We can provide just about anything you want to make your stay special.
Talking of which, check out our niche craft courses - you might like to have your Yurt experience built around attending one of those... or we'll leave you absolutely alone.
You'll have gathered the Yurt is for two, comfortably. If you want to share with more it may be possible - but will probably require the removal of the bed and you to provide your own beds/bedding. Be sure to ask prior to booking.
Due to our affection for our local wildlife we ask that if you bring the dog, it's kept on a lead. You're welcome to wander around the garden and if you fancy a few hours fishing, you can nip over the fence to the farm ponds 5 minutes away; they say there's a 24lb carp in there and we can lend you a rod...
All bookings are arranged through Canopy & Stars
