As well as being completely self contained, we continue to hold our AA ‘Covid safe’ accreditation and will do everything needed to make sure that we all stay safe during your stay , including conducting all check in’s and check outs outdoors and from a safe distance and delivering delicious home cooked breakfasts and evening meals to the drop off point outside of your yurt. All yurts have wood burning stoves and electric heaters so you will be toasty and warm and they will be decked out with Christmas decorations to help you get into the festive spirit at the end of this crazy crazy year.
