Very peaceful, comfortable and at the same time, plenty of facilities

Pros: Spacious and comfortable. My friends expected something quite Spartan and were very pleasantly surprised when I showed them pictures of Isla Yurt. I was very comfortable for my stay.

Cons: .

Peaceful and relaxing

Pros: It was exactly as pictured and had lots of space outside around the yurt. Even though there are others staying on site, there’s enough space that it feels very private.

Pros: Very clean, comfortable & well equipped, with beautiful views over farm fields. We loved the outdoor seating area & especially the firepit.

Cons: 150m walk to the toilet block, but it didn't spoil our experience.

A peaceful stay

Pros: The location is calm and peaceful. The Yurt had everything we needed. If you are concerned about the shared bathroom, don't be. It's very clean and not too far from the Yurt.

Cons: There isn't anything to complain about. Just that it does get a bit warm in there on hot days. But the yurt had a table top fan that helped a little

A calm, quiet night under the stars.

Pros: Enjoyed our stay under the stars. We had never β€˜yurted’ before so this was an experience in itself. The layout was lovely, the facilities good and the ambience really calming and at one with nature. Instructions were clear, including location and how use everything which really helped. Everything was clean and maintained well. Our hosts were very responsive and always available when we needed them. Fairy lights were a nice romantic touch to the yurt and added to the ambience. I think the only thing I would have needed in the explanation of the stay was the use of coal and wood which we cleared up with the hosts once we’d arrived but we didn’t realise we should have brought our own, otherwise had to buy it there. So if you’re regular campers/yurters- take your fire supplies! 😊

Cons: The style of bed (metal frame) was really quite creaky, and the mattress quite soft which meant every time one of us moved the noise woke the other up which was a bit of a shame, but luckily we are decent sleepers. My only recommendation would be to maybe do a futon style, which would also go in keeping with the yurt theme. Just a thought.

Pros: Amazing location, superb facilities (if the shared bathroom etc puts you off, dont let it!), everything spotlessly clean and just PERFECT. I can't fault a thing really - it was an amazing beautiful stay.

Cons: A wee welcome document would be good - to condense the wifi details, info about wood for fire and stuff - just to make it super easy perhaps.

Comfy, cosy yurt retreat.

Pros: The yurt was spacious and cosy, loved the open space for the perfect barbecue. The room was super warm at night with plenty of heating provided. Highly recommend this location.The bed was super comfortable. The hosts are super lovely people, very kind and attended to all our needs.

Cons: Loved everything will definetly come back here more often as it is very peaceful out here. Although the shared bathroom and shared kitchen access is a 2 minute walk across from the yurt which for us was ok.
