Liked: We stayed in the yurt at Ruby’s Orchard and had a wonderful time. It was a well thought out set up and great to have a separate tent with cooking facilities. There was loads of space there and brilliant to be the only people staying there. We certainly hope to stay again.
Disliked: None

Willow yurt
Liked: What a beautiful little find! We couldn’t have asked for a better stay with our 2 children. The owner was so friendly and had thought of absolutely everything. Not only were we greeted and shown around but little notes were everywhere making sure everything was easily accessible. The children were free to explore the woodlands, build dens, pond dipping and so much more. The yurt was beautifully laid out with a large double bed and two separate beds for the children. All cooking equipment was provided and we enjoyed a bbq and a fire pit to make s’mores with the children each evening. All the facilities were clean and we were all able to have a warm shower each day. Little touches like the vase of fresh flowers, table cloths, fairy lights and solar lighting, box of blankets and hot water bottles provided a real sense of luxury. We will certainly be back for many more visits where we were able to truly enjoy uninterrupted family time and the children were free to be children.
Disliked: Going home!
