YURT HOLIDAYS

LUXURY CAMPING - booking for April to October 2011

Ever heard of GLAMPING? The Glamourous Camping experience that is booming as people look for new experiences.
You stay under canvas in a Yurt overlooking the Stour valley under the stars. At the same time you have space to plug in your hair straighteners, mirrors, lights and have all your little luxuries.

The Yurt is located in a secluded position. A wood burner within the yurt gives you extra warmth.  You can walk to the village pub and restaurant. In the mornings if you do not want to self cater we will bring you a cooked Suffolk breakfast and lay you table either in the Yurt or outside in your own picnic area.

Close to nature and in comfort. As you open the door of your Yurt in your own piece of field and see the free range chickens running around. The piglets have not yet arrived and this year we have more baby bunnies than ever running around!

The bathroom  facilities are closeby in the farmhouse. Tthe Yurts are fabulously furnished with real double beds, duvet, pillows, bed side tables and lamps. In fact they look just as good if not better that our bed and breakfast rooms.

You do not have to pack a carload. We provide all bedding and towels, blow up beds for children, solar lighting in the yurt, woodburner, wood and matches, dining room table and chairs in the yurt and picnic table and BBQ outside the yurt.  

For young children we have cots, high chairs, changing mats and toilet seats.

Hopefully we have thought of most things. This is a very private and personal break. It is safe and the yurt is also very romantic. It is very quiet here and that is the way we like it. So if you want to play loud music this is not the place for you. However singing around the campfire at sunset is perfectly acceptable!!

WHAT TO DO

                       This is a 12 acres small holding and we are lucky to have lots of wildlife. For those of you coming for the week there will be a chance for the kids to help sow wild flowers or make a bee nest.

BADGER WATCHING - we have a set of badgers. They are very quiet, but for those with patience it offers some great photographic opportunities. A unique opportunity!

WILDLIFE SPOTTING - we will be supplying you with binoculars and identification charts. Good ones for here are hedgerows, butterflies, ladybirds. If you wish to bring your own Field Studies Council sell them for £2.95 each. We will be keeping a nature diary for everything you spot and you will be able to keep up to date with this on-line.

WALKING - The nearby Stour Valley Path offers great off road walking and our field backs onto a green lane with Wild Hops, Elm trees and old pollarded Oaks.

CYCLING - South Suffolk Route 1a is nearby and there are also old railway routes and quiet lanes. Essex Wildlife Trust has just designated a nature trial along some of our nearby lanes which lead onto old saxon paths for those who want to go off road.  For the more serious cyclist National Route 13 is approx 3 miles away. 

CYCLE HIRE is also available using a local company. Please contact us as pre booking is advisable.

We so of course look after our cylists and walkers so any wet clothing can be dried and secure storage for cycles is all available as are pack lunches and drinks.
