What is a yurt?

A yurt is a round tent built on a wooden lattice frame with a domed roof and a central crown, traditionally covered in felt or canvas — sturdy, spacious and full of character.

What to expect inside

Expect wooden floors, proper beds, a wood-burning stove, rugs and lantern light — cosy, warm and a world away from ordinary camping.

Are yurts warm?

Yes — the wood-burning stove keeps a yurt snug even in spring and autumn, making them a great choice well beyond the summer.

Who yurt glamping suits

Yurts suit couples, families and groups alike, with many large enough to sleep several — and plenty offering private hot tubs.
