Ever stayed in a Yurt?

We'd love you to enjoy the delights of yurt life at Ivy Grange Farm, situated in the quiet countryside, close to beaches, good pubs, food and shopping! Whether you are looking for a romantic break or a place to relax with the kids, we hope we can offer just what you need. After our first season in 2011 this is what some of our guests said about their stay: "The Yurts themselves are beautiful, the bed was so comfortable and the woodburner made for cosy romantic evenings! We picked our own salad and beans, and the owners couldn't do enough for us, but also left us be.." "We cooked outside on the barbeque and camp kitchen every night and loved picking fresh courgettes..." "The kids loved the freedom of the field and we all loved sitting round the firepit. And the outdoor showers are simply inspired!..." "We spent a truly idyllic long August weekend at Ivy Grange Farm Yurts - our loveliest and most memorable weekend of the year!..."

Our Yurts

Barn Owl Yurt

Our 16’ Cornish yurt is made to the traditional design with oak trellis and steam-bent ash roof poles; the heavyweight canvas exterior is lined with a beautiful soft jade cotton around the walls and roof. The yurt has a double bed and a fold-out single.

The Barn Owl yurt sits in the Goose Paddock, on a raised wooden platform with chairs and a table (made from our own willow trees) for alfresco dining. The yurt has a barbecue and gas rings for cooking, as well as an open fire and tripod with cook-pot should you be overcome by a Ray Mears moment. Inside the yurt, a fun wood burning stove (using re-cast car wheels, amongst other things) ensures cosy nights, perhaps whilst star gazing through the yurt’s magical “wheel".

This English yurt came from Tim Hutton at YurtWorks. Tim makes yurts and offers Cornish yurt holidays at his smallholding.

Woodpecker Yurt

In the Meadow, we have a 19’ Mongolian yurt with painted wooden roof bars, doors and “wheel”, covered with felt and canvas and using ropes made from natural camel hair. The yurt has a double bed, a Mongolian day-bed (single) and a fold-out single.

The yurt sits at the far end of the Meadow near one of our two small copses, with bluebells in spring and where the hares hang out later in the summer. There’s plenty of opportunity to forage wood for the open fire, and there’s shade for the hammock if it all gets too much.

This Mongolian yurt came from Hidden Valley Yurts who import yurts from Mongolia and have a beautiful yurt site set in the south of Wales.

Lapwing Yurt

Our new English yurt (from Somerset) is fully lined with sheep's wool felt for the cooler ends of the season and elegantly finished with pale cotton lining. The yurt sleeps 2 adults and two children, comes fully furnished with lovely double bed, duvet, pillows etc and pull-out singles for children. There's a wood-burning stove and the yurt sits on its own decking with campfire and bar-b-q.
