Handcrafted Countryside Yurt with Private Deck & Fire Pit in England, United Kingdom

Description

Huge Yurt on a small sustainable site in the heart of the South Downs National Park - enjoy peace, comfort and freedom amidst the breathtaking beauty of the "green and pleasant land" of unspoilt Sussex countryside.

SPACE
Hidden in a meadow, this Yurt is hand crafted using hardwood that once grew just ½ a mile away. Natural light from five picture windows complete with blinds, flood the space and, if you want to get even closer to nature, the doors can easily be opened to let fresh air and the sounds of the countryside stream in. This has very flexible accommodation with 6 single beds complete with fresh linen and chest of drawers makes your rural retreat a home from home. On those rare occasions when the sun doesn't shine, the natural insulation of wood floor, rugs and the warmth of a wood burning stove will keep you blissfully comfortable.

Shares a kitchen, showers and compost loos with a few camping pitches however this yurt does come with all the pots, pans, plates, cutlery and glassware that you would want. Once your meal is cooked, you can retreat to your private dining area on the deck outside your yurt (or the indoor dining table if its wet) and enjoy the perfect setting for glorious, memorable alfresco meals and moonlit dinners. Campfires are a must, so a beautiful fire bowl is provided for you to enjoy so don't forget the marshmallows!

NEIGHBORHOOD
Originally a hunting lodge for King Charles II, Lower Lodge Farm's 3,000 acres of rolling fields and ancient woodland are interlaced with ponds and brooks that feed the River Lod. Recognised as a corridor of environmental significance, it is home to a diverse collection of flora and fauna including; cuckoos, kingfishers, deer, badgers, rare orchids, mistletoe and, if you're lucky, even multicoloured rabbits. Amongst the farm's many treasures are woodland walks, streams bristling with fish, ancient woodland clearings and the ruins of an iron forge from the earliest days of the industrial revolution. To cap it all, amidst all this beauty is the privately owned 12th century Shulbrede Priory where Parry wrote the score for Jerusalem. From the comfort and tranquility of this Yurt you too will share, understand, and be at one with the "green and pleasant land" that inspired the stirring music for Jerusalem, the nation's favourite hymn.

TRANSIT
On site parking is available to all guests and taxis from Haslemere (48 mins from Waterloo) or Liphook (58 mins from Waterloo) station are easy to book from the cab ranks outside. We are a firm favorite with cyclists with close proximity to the King Alfreds Way, lots of off road routes, and secure bike storage. There are plenty of local walks for all abilities and some even make a stop off at our amazing local pubs!

NOTES
Located on a working family farm so please respect the Country Code at all times and leave no trace. There are many wonderful things the countryside has to offer but when you're tired at the end of a hard day's play we have plenty of board games, maps and books to while away the hours.

A quiet and peaceful site where people come to relax and enjoy nature. For this reason, we have a strict 10pm curfew and ask everyone to keep noise to a minimum after then.

The nearest shop is a 10min drive so we advise all guests not having glamping packs or takeaways delivered to get shopping done in advance.

As the facilities are shared, towels are not included for guests
