Description

This cozy yurt rental is located near Glastonbury, England, and can accommodate three guests for an idyllic getaway to the countryside. Inside the fully-insulated yurt, guests will find an airy, colorful bedroom set on a wooden platform, illuminated by ample natural light and LED lighting, kept cozy by a locally handmade wood-burning stove, and filled with an eclectic ensemble of vintage furnishings. The latter includes a table with four chairs, a sofa, a wardrobe, and a king-size, four-poster, colonial Indian bed, which is dressed in luxurious linens. An additional twin-size bed is also available for groups containing a third guest. Other amenities include power points for charging devices and complimentary firewood.

In separate units, guests will also find a kitchen, a lavatory with a compost toilet, and a shower with on-demand, instant hot water. The fully-equipped kitchen comes with a vintage butler sink, a triple-ring gas hob, cool boxes, frozen ice packs, and an eight-person dining table, along with cooking utensils and thoughtful extras, such as fine china, champagne flutes, and French presses.

Around the site, guests will find a wildflower meadow where, depending on the time of year, they may see cowslips, buttercups, orchids, and vetch, along with a variety of birds and butterflies. From the site, guests can see all the way to the Mendip Hills, Glastonbury Tor, and the Somerset Levels, hinting at excursions to come, while nearby footpaths and bridle paths extend into the surrounding countryside, providing opportunities for scenic walks, hikes, and horseback rides.

Featuring a Thunderbox compost toilet and kept immaculately clean for guests' comfort, the lavatory was built from larch wood sourced from a sustainable woodland. Each of the site's two yurts has its own designated toilet, so one party of guests will not need to share theirs with the other party.

Accessible 24 hours a day, the shower provides guests with instant, on-demand hot water, which is heated by an off-grid propane heater and powered by a leisure battery and boat pump. There is a sink both in the shower unit and outside of the lavatory.
