Each Yurt is individually furnished with an eclectic mix of rustic furniture. This includes a double bed, single futons, as well as piles of cosy cushions, blankets and throws.
In the centre of each Yurt is a wood stove and the floor is covered with rush matting - so even on chilly nights, the space is warm and inviting. Each Yurt has it's own area for picnicking or relaxing in the sunshine and enjoying the views.
Each Yurt has it's own fire pit in front where you can enjoy a bbq in the evenings or stoke up the bonfire for marshmallow toasting..
The 'Mongolian' Yurts:
We have 2 Medium Yurts sleeping up to 5 people. They each have 1 double bed and 3 single futons. Our large Yurt sleeping up to 6 people, has one double bed and 5 single futons. All the yurts are beautifully hand made in Mongolia and are fully insulated with a thick felt lining for extra cosiness.
WHAT IS A YURT?
Yurts originate from Mongolia and Central Asia and were traditionally used as a portable shelter for nomads.
The yurts consist of an expanding wooden circular frame carrying a canvas cover with a felt lining. Our Yurts have the traditional wool felt lining, meaning they are not only really cosy at night, but keep the Yurt nice and cool in the summer time. Pure sheep's wool is also naturally fire resistant.
Many people in Mongolia retain a nomadic life style and the Yurt is still the most common form of habitation. A yurt is designed to be dismantled and the parts carried compactly on camels or yaks to be rebuilt on another site.
