Me and my husband recently had a lovely 2 night stay at yurtshire. We were even able to take our dog. We were greeted on arrival by a very accommodating member of staff. A cart was available to transfer our belongings to the yurt( take wellies as it was quite muddy due to the weather). Inside was everything needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was very comfy. A basket of logs was provided( we also took our own) we still had to buy more so be prepared as loads are needed to get the hot tub going. The hot tub took about 3 hours to heat. My husband did have to work hard chopping wood( I sat and watched with a glass of wine 🍷😂) wow! once heated it was well worth the hard work and was still warm the next morning 😊 we used the fire pit and had a bbq the first evening, and the 2nd evening we went to the nearest pub which was a 2 mile walk across fields( map available at reception). The tea lights and lanterns supplied were a nice touch. Shower lovely and hot. Overall a fantastic stay at yurtshire and would definitely...
Read moreQuite frankly an unbelievable place in a beautiful setting, staff are very friendly and we had excellent service which included our bags being dropped off at the yurt and a full talk through on how to get the best experience in the yurt. The Yurt is very spacious and is full of decorations and a log burner. Cooking facilities and a coffee machine is also included as-well as complimentary kindling, logs and fire starters. Would 100% suggest going. I stopped in the middle yurt called hazel and I’ve never had an experience like it. The fire pit, bathroom and hot tub where all 10/10. The location is also perfect as it is close to lots of national heritage sites such as fountains Abby and briham rock. It is also about 4-5 miles out of ripon so it is easy access into the city. I will 100% be back (hopefully in winter). All round excellent little break, thank you so much to the Yurtshire team, should be very proud of what you...
Read moreWe’ve recently returned from a 2 night weekend stay with extended family staying in 2 other yurts. Overall we enjoyed our stay, the hot tubs were a big hit once we managed to control the temperature and the vibe was nice with a fabulous view of the night sky on the clear night we had. The toilet / shower facilities were fine however the images on the site are reflective of the other location so there is a feeling of instant disappointment upon arrival which could easily be avoided (some of the reviews here for fountains are not fountains). Being off grid is part of the appeal but there is a lack of consistency in terms of what works / doesn’t work in way of solar power / lighting. There was a distinct lack of working lighting in the outdoor seating areas for all 3 yurts that we occupied. I’m not sure when the site was setup but it is definitely in need of some TLC so hopefully that happens...
