former Dairy Farm. Each yurt is brightly painted in the authentic Mongolian style. Inside they
are beautifully equipped and furnished and sleep up to six. (we also have Travel cots
available on request). Each yurt also has lighting and electricity for recharging your
gadgets, and induction hob for your morning coffee or tea . Towels and linens are included
in your freshly made up yurt when you arrive. For an extra level of comfort, we also have
a holiday cottage that sleeps four people. call us to check availability.

stove, or gather with friends or family to enjoy a barbecue in your own outdoor seating
area. We have a tranquil lake on the property which
is perfect for early morning meditation, picnics, or just watching the sun glimmer over its
surface as it sets! Children can scramble about on our wooden
play equipment and you can relax knowing the area is securely fenced in and safe.
