Mead yurt
Liked: The yurt was a great experience, very nice inside, very clean and comfortable with a nice atmosphere when the fairy lights were on at night. Highly recommended! A useful kitchen with a portable gas stove in a horse box and a bbq outside, and also a fire pit. Plenty of plates and cups for a family of four. The biggest bonus of all is that you are camping by yourself, no other campers!! Friendly staff.
Disliked: Ideally, having the water tap near the tent site would be a big bonus instead of on the other side of the field. A dish washing area with a tap would be welcomed. For the extra "5 star" experience an outdoor shower in the same style as the outside toilet would be optimal. All the luxuries above require that magic water supply which I understand could be a problem to install across that field.
