What is it like staying in a Contemporary Yurt?

The simple answer is just imagine taking all of the best bits of camping and losing all of the not so good bits. A Contemporary Yurt is a bright, spacious circular structure consisting of a wooden frame with a lattice wall, a durable, insulated and waterproof fabric cover and a solid locking door.  Our guests love the viewing dome through which as night falls you can relax looking at the sky.   Although generally classified as a tent, a Contemporary Yurt is far more spacious (even for the tallest person), much stronger and weather tight.

Small Village Yurt

Yurtcamp Devon & Dartmoor | Luxury Glamping Holidays in Devon

It feels like everyone wants to be outdoors and camping at the moment; whether you’ve done it before or new to the notion of sleeping under the stars, an awesome movement is sweeping the country.  Except...not everyone wants to spend their holiday hammering in tent pegs and playing cats cradle with guy ropes.  Well, this is where Yurtcamp Devon swings heroically into action.  They’ve done all the hard work so you don’t have to.  There is still all the simplicity of a nature based getaway, but your home is a contemporary yurt and you sleep on a proper bed.

Situated on the edge of Dartmoor National Park in south Devon, this excellent, family friendly site is set up like a village, with groups of yurts dotted about well kept fields and shrouded in woodland, separated by winding paths, picnic tables and firepits.  There are 22 yurts in all, some small and suitable for two (with room for a travel cot if there is a third wheel in your party) and some larger, which comfortably sleep 5 or 6.  All yurts have proper beds, a woodburner to keep you warm on chiller nights, a table and chairs and cooking facilities.  A well maintained shower and toilet block is located a short walk from the yurts.  If you want a more remote setting for your stay, book a yurt hidden in the woodland, either with one or two neighbours if you travel in a group, or completely on its own in the wilds, perfect for complete seclusion or even….a romantic proposal.  And talking of proposals, if the answer is a delighted yes, then why not consider going the whole hog and marrying at Yurtcamp?  They are a licensed venue for weddings where you can tie the knot in the thatched pavilion and have a catered reception for up to 140 people.

The yurts are surrounded by 40 acres of beautiful woodland and there is plenty of space to explore and walk along one of the many pretty trails; wildlife lovers can keep a lookout out for birds of prey and deer.  There is a large field on the site which has been left clear for ball games and general gadding about.  Yurtcamp also has table tennis, a playground, a sandpit and a woodland assault course with zipwire, so there is plenty to keep everyone very well entertained.  The excellent Woodland Cafe onsite serves meals, Devon cream teas and drinks.  

There is no real reason to leave this lovely set up, but should you decide to venture into the outside world, you’ll be well rewarded.  The Devon coast is only 8 miles down the road and the ancient woodland of Dartmoor National Park is right on the doorstep for hiking, biking and rambling in the wilds.  It is well worth a visit to Becky Falls here, a 70 foot waterfall, which offers a great family day out with walking trails, boulder scrambling and even animal encounters.  For daredevils, the River Dart Country Park is a ten minute drive away and is a chance to have a go at kayaking, high ropes, climbing and loads of other brilliant activities.

If you do take a day trip, make sure you get back to camp in time for some nighttime star gazing.  Each yurt has a viewing dome at the centre, so you can light the woodburner, kick back and watch out for shooting stars across the dark Devon sky.

Dec - Standard Bell Tent

Stay in a beautiful bell tent in the Devon countryside.

Looking for cosy couples’ getaways under canvas or an adventure packed weekend with friends? Get away from the hustle and bustle and stay in a beautiful bell tent in the Devon countryside. Set up, ready for your arrival, glamping is the perfect way to camp! This peaceful home away from home, with lakeside views and woodland walks makes for splendidly soothing hols.

The sloping meadow, with levelled pitches, offers breath-taking views. A stream meanders down the hillside from a small pond at the top, down to a lake at the bottom of the field, connecting to a river in the valley below. A vast wall of trees, and miles of woodland walks in Haldon forest lies beyond!

This secluded site is something of a wildlife haven. With no site lighting, and minimal (solar) lighting at the pitches, it’s perfect for spotting glow worms and bats at night. Here you’ll have access to uninterrupted vistas of trees, a fishing lake and a small river, and miles of woodland forest trails. (Which connect up to a choice of different pubs within 30 mins walk.) Or go for a wander to say hello to the horses living on the farm. 

There are never more than 10 pitches in the 2.5 acre field (even on a busy summer holiday weekend), so there is plenty of space. Bell tents are spaced a minimum of 10 metres apart from one another, for your privacy.

If you have friends/family that would like to join, message us for availability and we’ll aim to arrange you to stay in pitches close to one another.

The tents can squeeze another single bed in too, if you have a 3rd person (at a small extra fee).

DOGS: Dogs are allowed, but the site does not accept breeds/crossbreeds listed in the Dangerous Dogs Act and/or any of the following: Staffordshire bull terrier, American Staffordshire terrier, Rottweiler, any Mastiff or Tosa.

PARKING/ACCESS: We have 3 different car parks. For 4×4 owners and braver drivers, there’s parking very close to pitches. For others, access from the main car park involves a 200-metre walk down a steep track, which can be slippery at times. (Wheelbarrows provided for your gear.)

Please note, this site is not suitable for the less able.

The tents are self check in, but good signage and a site map should enable you to find your pitch on your own.

(We provide a contact number for any inquiries and there is someone on-site in case of emergencies.)

Please note there is a lot of water around (stream, pond, small lake and river) and you are responsible for your own safety and for the safety of any children that you bring.

The site is on a working farm and there are lots of horses around.
