Shropshire, United Kingdom is a county located in the west region of England. Over a quarter of the land area is covered by beautiful green rolling hills that are characteristic of the English countryside. The area is famous for the Ironbridge Gorge, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to the world’s first bridge forged from iron. Since Shropshire is one of the United Kingdom’s most rural and sparsely populated areas, it is an ideal destination for people looking for a getaway from the busier cities.

Staying in a yurt is a great option if you want to immerse yourself in the simpler lifestyle of rural England without compromising on comfort. Read on for some of the best yurts in Shropshire, UK, to consider for your next vacation to the countryside!

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 13, 2024.
