What an ideal place for long weekend getaway. The place is an experience and not just accommodation. The star gazing in the night was beautiful experience with fire pit keeping you warm. Highly recommended.

Such a gorgeous little getaway! The yurt was so beautifully thought out and had absolutely everything we needed. The outdoor bath was pure bliss, and the fully fenced space was a huge bonus for the dogs. We had the loveliest time, switched off and soaked up every minute. Only downside was having to leave after one night! We’ll definitely be back.
