Liked: Had the most wonderful stay. The weather wasn’t great which made the weekend even more special as we snuggled up in the yurt with the indoor fire going. I could not fault the accom and experience if I tried.

Yurt
Liked: From the Yurt 🛖 to the outdoor twin baths was indulgence to another level. The outdoor shower and toilet were exhilarating. The outdoor lounge area looking across the fields welcomed the sun setting with a cocktail 🍸 in hand. The BBQ 🍗 and Fire 🔥 pit were fun to use especially if you take Marshmallows for toasting.

Yurt
Liked: Beautiful surroundings, the Yurt its self was nice, the bath tubs on the decking a lovely touch, and the lay out of the Yurt was perfect. Downside for us was with how hot it was and the Yurt had no shade/fans. We couldn't be inside the Yurt and the decking area provided no shelter, perhaps a suggestion of some form of shade/fan. A few lights on the decking were out, and I had notified the owner other than this its a lovely peaceful place, that been said if the farmers aren't doing the fields like our arrival until gone 8/9pm at night, haha. We didn't get chance to experience this for all of our stay due to a family emergency led us to leave a day early which is a real shame but enjoyed the time we had there.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike other than a few little minors listed above.

Liked: Couldn't have asked for more. The owners literally have thought of everything. All we need to take was food and drinks. Beautiful little escape for a romantic getaway. The baths were amazing.. steaming hot as the evening cooled down. So romantic with the decking lights on and the sun going down. All the Comforts of a hotel but the great outdoors feeling of camping.. alfresco and drinks on the decking. Fire pit lit. Night's were a bit chilly so the Indoor log fire was so cosy. Needed to purchase extra fire wood.
