Lovingly crafted from coppiced sweet chestnut and ash, this traditional-style Turkoman yurt is a charming retreat, ideal for a romantic weekend getaway or a relaxing mid-week break. Nestled in a peaceful woodland setting beside a chalk stream, it’s both eco-friendly and low impact, offering comfort without compromise. For days out, you’ll be spoilt for choice: wander the magical trails of Wendover Woods, especially stunning in autumn, or head to the nearby Chilterns National Landscape (5 miles) for breathtaking walks. Step back in time with a nostalgic ride on the Aylesbury Vale Heritage Railway (11 miles) or enjoy a lakeside picnic among the whimsical follies of West Wycombe Park (12 miles). For something truly special, take a gentle canal boat cruise along the Grand Union Canal (6 miles), or explore the elegant Hughenden Manor, once the home of Victorian Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli.
The yurt itself is open-plan, cosy and full of character, with a cast iron wood-burning stove to keep things warm and welcoming on cooler evenings. A king-size bed promises restful nights, while a mattress provides space for up to two additional guests. There’s also a sofa and dining table for two, ideal for relaxed mornings with coffee or rainy afternoons spent reading or playing games. Just steps away, your private kitchen is fully equipped for rustling up delicious meals, and there's an indoor dining area for comfortable, all-weather dining. With hot and cold running water, electricity, and a luxurious shower room with composting toilet, you’ll feel thoroughly pampered. This is glamping at its finest!
Step outside into your own secluded wild garden, a peaceful haven for al fresco dining, lazy afternoons on the outdoor seating, or stargazing beside the fire pit. Sink into the wood-fired hot tub (additional charge applies), drift off under the dappled shade of the trees, or book a session in the woodland sauna for the ultimate indulgence in your private, natural spa-like setting. This yurt offers a beautiful harmony of comfort and nature – a peaceful escape from the everyday.
