Greener Glamping

Greener glamping

We had the most incredible 3 days at Nathan and Shayne's yurt. We were utterly spoilt with time 'off the grid'...we enjoyed endless hours of nothing :-)
We were thrilled with the accommodation, the bed was super comfortable and the place got toasty with the log burner. The yurt is totally private and we felt like we had given ourselves the gift of time, peace, tranquility and being present.
We enjoyed the alfresco cooking and dining, and found the temperatures outside were simply perfect for chilling beer and wine!
The surrounding landscape is so special, we were greeted each morning with bird song and went to sleep under a blanket or stars.
Hands down the best 'loo with a view'!!
The location is great for local sites (although we didn't actually budge...apart from a trip into the village for fish and chips one evening!)

We couldn't have asked for more...
Nathan was the most fabulous host, offering us a warm welcome and chatting to us with genuine interest and re-igniting a passion in us for the great outdoors.
Thank you for making wood available to purchase at an extremely low rate so that we could enjoy indoor and outdoor fires.
We are going to really miss it and will definitely be returning!!!

Really beautiful and remote. Shayne and Nathan couldn't have been nicer too.

The accommodation was great, in a really good spot and very peaceful. The owner was very helpful, and very quick to respond throughout the process. 100% would stay here again.

Thanks

We had an amazing time, the yurt is incredibly cozy, warm and homely (smells great too!)

Me and my partner both argree that this is the nicest place we've stay so far, the entire atmosphere they've created there is beautiful.

Both of Shayne and Nathan are very welcoming and a joy to be around, which meant at no point did we feel like we're 'just' hiring the yurt from them for a few days. It's honestly felt like we'd be there for a lot longer.

We couldn't of asked for more.

We (2 people and a dog) had a relaxing stay in this clean, rustic glamping yurt and cabin. Lovely views, very peaceful and a comfortable bed. Friendly and responsive host. Good base for exploring the surrounding area. Deck was great for a cuppa, breakfast & bird spotting.

House rules and directions were detailed, which made check in very hands-off (you can arrange for in-person check in if desired) and straight forward. Nathan was quick to bring us bedding for the second bed and to check that the cabin door handle (bit loose) and yurt door cover (bit tired, you have to just fold it under the poles of the yurt) were both as they should be. This was much appreciated and meant we could just relax and enjoy the space. Thank you for having us!

NOTE: we encountered a lot of ticks, even just walking on the road (we've done off-grid, middle of nature camping adventures a lot and not had as many as we did here) so come prepared, especially if bringing a dog with you.
