Escape to this enchanting glamping yurt, nestled in a tranquil complex of properties in a wildflower meadow in the heart of the breathtaking Blackdown Hills National Landscape. Sleeping six people across one king-size bed and four singles, it's ideal for large families or groups of friends who are searching for a fun retreat where the only sounds are birdsong and the crackle of a fire pit. Switch off your electronic devices and hike up to the hilltop viewpoint at Culmstock Beacon (6 miles), where you’ll be rewarded with sweeping panoramas across the hills. In the evening, come home to relax by your fire pit while you toast marshmallows under a glittering canopy of stars.
Pull up in your private parking spot (there’s room for two cars) and climb the six steps up to your decked area. Step inside your surprisingly spacious yurt and you’ll find an open-plan living and sleeping space with a king-size bed with four singles arranged on either side. A wood burner glows at the heart of this impressive, rustic-chic space. Cook up a storm in the shared camp kitchen, or fire up the BBQ and dine alfresco at your private outdoor seating area. There’s also a shared barn with additional cooking facilities and your yurt’s private shower room just a short stroll away. Completing the setup, a private compost toilet is also located conveniently close to your safari tent.
Treat the history lovers in your group to a day in Tiverton (8 miles), where you can explore the medieval castle and take a gentle stroll along the banks of the Grand Western Canal. Alternatively, head to the National Trust's Knightshayes (8 miles) to discover its spectacular Gothic Revival house and vibrant Victorian gardens.
