Greener Glamping

08m

Myself and my partner spent a few days just after Christmas this place, and it was a wonderful experience. We have strong traditional connections to Yurts and also had the chance to have a look at Shayne & Nathan's cob house. My partner grew up in a cob house, and I fond of history and art, so this place was a perfect choice to reconnect our background, wind down, spend night next to the fire, in a cosy yurt, having a good bottle of wine and wonderful conversations. We truly experienced what it means slowing down (especially it was still in the short, dark winter days) and pay more attention to the details.

The yurt was so cosy, with plenty of spare blankets, lovely light and craftsmanship. The location is beautiful, the spot is nice and private. It was pretty rainy and windy, but the yurt stood these well and felt absolutely safe inside - but not separated from nature.

We came by bus and walked up from the village to the location. It is uphill, so be prepared if you have the same idea, but it is definitely not too much, just a good exercise starting your adventure. Follow the instructions, and when you see the wind turbine and the yurts, you can be sure you are at the right place!

We hope to come back soon again,
Rita & Tamas

It's a beautiful place to stay with great amenities and a very friendly vibe.

Everything was very clear with a lot of detailed instructions so there was no confusion about anything.

The only thing I overlooked when booking was if there was a secure place to keep our belongings during the stay. We ended up just keeping them in the car if we weren't in the Yurt, but it didn't impact the trip at all, just something to keep in mind.

A slice of rural heaven! Absolutely beautiful area, tons of wildlife and walks. Yurt was lovely, kitchen and bathroom were really clean. Nathan was a delight, had a good chat, really lovely host. Will be back again!!

Wow, what a lovely 4 days we have had at this beautiful yurt. Nathan and Shayne are great hosts very warm and friendly with lots of advice on local walks to hand. The yurt it’s self is truly amazing and it has its own little garden area with fire pit/bbq, chairs and table. The perfect place to come back to chill after a nice long walk and toast some marshmallows which went down a treat with our 6 year old son. I really can’t rate this pace enough. We are a family of 3 with a black Labrador and let me assure you this place was perfect for both our son and lab. They have both enjoyed the walks and water. Thank you for the experience :) Otis will miss the reservoir so much. Truly amazing off grid living experience. Thumbs up to Nathan and Shayne
