Larkhill Tipis and Yurts

Fran and Tony have created a very special place and are brilliant hosts. We stayed for two nights in the Mongolian Ger. It was spotlessly clean, and the log burner was wonderful on the damp evenings. The log cabin is very well equipped. Both composting and flushing toilets are available, and showers are excellent. The surroundings are beautiful with the woodland areas and artistic installations clearly a labour of love. It’s off-grid, but perhaps surprisingly has good mobile signal.

What an amazing experience we had as a family. Fran and family were amazing and very accommodating, ensuring that we were looked after. I would definitely recommend for families with children. Will definitely be visiting again in the near future!!!! Xx

Relaxing wonderful place We had a lovely weekend at the wonderful place. The yurt was so cosy and the log burner inside kept it really warm. The whole place was set in a woodland and each yurt had its own private area and firepit area which was great for sitting and enjoying the surroundings. The surrounding trails in the forest were magical and everything was highly eco friendly which was great to see. The fresh duck and chicken eggs to buy were especially delicious. A top find!

Lovely stay just what the doctor ordered

We booked the Brentwood Yurt last minute to end off the October school break for the 4 of us. We had a bit of a terrible journey and didn’t reach Larkhill until Very late and Fran so very kindly waited up for us getting us settled and showing us round briefly. When morning light revealed our surroundings we were stunned, situated in the middle of the woodland amongst the trees with so many different nook and crannies to explore the kids were in there element. We were unlucky to have a bit of wet and windy weekend but it didn’t put us off we toasted marshmallows In the fire pit and made hot chocolate. The facilities are great, 2 toilets and 2 showers with hot water. The hut with shared facilities were great for us to make our breakfast and do any washing up. It was peaceful, very well kept. And as someone who doesn’t camp it was very much glamping! We cannot wait to return!

We stayed for a weekend at Larkhill in the Mongolian Ger on a rainy weekend at the beginning of September and enjoyed every second of it! Fran and family have created a truly magical place for people to relax and enjoy the woodland around them. If you are passionate about eco friendly living you will love Larkhill. Their renewable energy projects, recycling and woodland management are inspiring. The Mongolian Ger was a special experience in itself. The wood burner quickly warms up creating a lovely cosy feel and at night it was lovely looking up through the clear window in the top of yurt at the stars. We didn't get to cook on the open fire outside due to the weather, but had no problems making a meal on the gas stove inside the yurt, plus there was the added option of the well equipped kitchen in the cabin if we'd needed it. Our favourite part of our stay was exploring al the hidden paths, sculptures and surprises throughout the woodland. Our daughters aged 8 and 10 were in their element creating their own mini adventures and discovering new places the whole weekend. Thank you Fran, Tony & Catherine for making our stay such a memorable experience xxx
