We charge £60 per night for the first night and £50 per night thereafter. In addition to the wood stove there is a BBQ area next to the Tipi you can either cook on BBQ or rest disposables.

Mongolian Yurts:-.With space to comfortably sleep six people, it offers a truly alternative experience and is perfect for families or small groups. Get back to the simple life, get yourself some fire wood, throw some sausages on the stove and sing the night away around the camp fire.

All beds fold up neatly giving you lots of room to lounge back and socialise during the day.
