Inside, a superking bed sits beneath a stargazing roof window, perfect for falling asleep under the constellations, with the gentle warmth of a wood burner keeping you cosy whatever the season. The yurt has a private bathroom with a hot shower just steps away, and your own fully equipped kitchen, which opens directly onto a spacious private decking area. Here, you can enjoy your morning coffee with panoramic countryside views, dine al fresco on garden furniture, or sit by the firepit as the sun dips below the horizon.
Surrounded by open skies and birdsong, this rural haven invites you to slow down and soak in the natural beauty around you. Two spring-fed lakes lie within walking distance, ideal for wild swimming, paddleboarding, or simply relaxing by the water’s edge. Wander through the orchard, where apple trees bloom and wildlife thrives, or explore the network of nearby footpaths that crisscross the rolling hills. When you feel like venturing out, the pub is just a short walk away, an inviting spot for local food and a pint after a long country stroll. A short drive brings you to the Jurassic Coast, where Charmouth Beach offers fossil hunting, sea breezes, and wide, open sands. The local area is rich with character, think winding country lanes, farm shops bursting with local produce, and postcard-perfect villages.
Whether you’re here to unwind, explore, or simply breathe in the fresh country air, this tucked-away yurt is a place to press pause, reconnect, and savour the simple joys of rural Dorset.
