YOUR CREATURE COMFORTS
WHY ARE WE ECO FRIENDLY?
We want to have minimum impact on the environment. We harness the power of the sun with using solar panels and a natural spring to provide drinking water, which is UV tested to make doubley sure it's drinkable.
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
This is the perfect place to relax, unwind and de-stress
WHAT ACCOMODATION DO WE HAVE?
Barn Owl yurt: Sleeps 2-4. This yurt comfortably sleeps 2 adults and 2 children. It has a double bed, a double sofa bed, a wood burner and plenty of room for belongings. It comes to life with tea light candle lanterns and it has all the same trimmings as the other yurts. Hence, it also has a sea view and it's just 15 mins walk into Polperro.
Buzzard yurt: Sleeps 2-5 people on a double bed with mattress, double camp bed and a single fold out camp bed. It also has a log burner and plenty of space for belongings as it's our biggest yurt. The largest of the 3 yurts. It has a bright fresh feel to it inside, with a hammock, sun lounger, private camp fire/BBQ area outside (like the others have) and a 6 foot private bamboo screen. BBQ's/sun loungers are stored in the summer house for guests to use.
Blue Jay Cowboy wagon: Sleeps 2 people on a double mattress with plenty of room under the bed for storage. Also has a BBQ and camp fire area. The smallest of all the accommodation, but there is a kitchen area and shower room just 50 meters away. This one has a camp fire but no log burner, although like the others, a warm throw is provided to go on top of the duvet making sure you get a warm nights sleep. Plenty of character for that unique style stay. Popular May-August.
Kingfisher yurt (coming soon): Sleeps 2-4. This yurt comfortably sleeps 2 adults and 2 children. It has a double bed, double sofa bed, a wood burner and plenty of room for belongings. It comes to life with tea-light candle lanterns and it warms up quickly with the log burner. Like the other yurts, it has a hammock, sun lounger, BBQ and campfire area.
Shepherds Hut- Sleeps 2. This hut has it's own cooking facilities with 2 gas hobs and a basin for washing up. It also has a kettle, water barrel and log burner which keeps the hut cosy all year round. The campfire area outside has some seating and a BBQ for guests to enjoy. Beautifully made with plenty of space. It's the first one on the video also, like with the yurts, it has 50-75 metres of space from your neighbour.
Circus trailer- Sleeps 2. Similar to the shepherds hut, this trailer has a double bed inside, with all the same facilities outside. It is being finished in the spring 2021, so it will be booked out from 1st May 2021 until the end of the year. A few quirky circus like items inside to put a smile on your face whilst relaxing on holiday!
WHAT AMENITIES DO WE HAVE?
We have 2 fully equipped kitchen areas with a basin, fridge, microwave and 2 gas hobs. There are 2 wet rooms with a shower/toilet/sink/mirror and running hot water 24 hours a day (water from the spring, heated from the solar panels with mains back up).
WHAT DO WE NEED TO BRING?
Just towels and your usual belongings! We provide linen and bedding along with a throw. A basket of wood is included in the price, then it's £6/basket from the log shed. We also provide pots, pans, hot drinks, cutlery, soap, washing up liquid, tea light's, firelighters and a host of other useful bits and bobs to make your stay comfortable.
We ask guests to bring towels, food for half a fridges worth of space, milk, charcoal and perhaps warm clothes, especially for spring/autumn time if staying out late.
But all you really need to bring is a sense of adventure!
DO YOU HAVE DISABLED FACILITIES?
Our yurt site is located in a natural meadow which is fairly level, but contact us if you have any particular concerns and we’ll do our best to accommodate all. The gravel pathways are not ideal and most of the dwellings are on a raised 10 inch platform, but the wet rooms have wide entrances and are very spacious.
