Yurts – get back to nature
A circular domed structure of heavy canvass on a lattice framework,
these
nomadic type dwellings offer something just that little bit
different or something for those wishing to take a greener, more sustainable
holiday. We have four yurts sited on raised wooden platforms set in the
tranquil old orchard towards the rear of the farmhouse. They are all
locally made, using sustainable materials.
A log burning stove gives you heating and cooking options whilst the generous interior gives adventurous families plenty of room in which to enjoy a camping holiday with a difference.
Try ‘lamping’ – Lazy Camping
Our yurts, Poppy, Cowslip, Foxglove and Bluebell, named after wildflowers that can be found growing around the farm are fully equipped with all the essentials you will need for your stay. The log burning stove to keep you cosy, a gas camp stove with grill, camp kitchen stocked with crockery, cutlery and utensils for cooking, a dining table and chairs and comfortable beds. Our yurts have no electrical supply to them and are lit by solar, wind up lanterns and candles. We also offer an ice pack exchange for keeping your food items fresh in the cool box provided.
Outside, each yurt has use of its own picnic table, BBQ and fire pit
for safe campfires. A basket of logs is included in the yurt stay and
additional logs and charcoal are available to purchase from the farm
should you require them. Here at the farm we produce our own Rare Breed
sausage and bacon
and this can also be purchased from the farm along
with fresh free range eggs. However, should you be feeling really lazy,
breakfasts can be booked to be taken in the farmhouse at a reasonable
additional cost by prior arrangement.
Toilets, basins, electric showers and pot washing facilities are free to use and are sited approximately twenty five metres from the yurts themselves. The walkway to these facilities is well lit during the evening.
So……..all you need to bring is yourself, suitable footwear, warm clothing, maybe a torch and a sense of adventure. Sit back and relax, all the hard work is done for you, bring the family and enjoy your time on the farm.
