If it’s a true glamping experience you’re after, then this holiday yurt in Hampshire is the way to go. Located amid ancient Hampshire woodland, its setting is perfect for those who wish to commune with nature without casting themselves too far off the beaten track. Indeed, for all its glamping authenticities - which include composting toilet - it is less than a mile (1.6 km) from the nearby village shop and pub - so you won’t have far to go to pick up supplies or to tuck into a bar meal or two.
Marketed as sleeping up to four people, but capable of accommodating as many as six, its insulation and wood-burning stove will make for a cosy glamping experience. Past guests loved the gorgeous and quiet setting and also praised the local pub.

4. 'Crab Shack' luxury yurt with harbour and sea views in Emsworth (from USD 144)
Location, as they say, is king. And, in the case of this highly-rated yurt rental near Hampshire, that is certainly the case. Set on a wooded peninsula in a marina on the south coast, it is perfectly placed for the charms of the sea and beautiful landscapes - with the Chichester Harbour Area of Outstanding National Beauty and the South Downs National Park both within easy reach. What’s more, this yurt’s Emsworth setting also places it close to the city of Portsmouth, so you won’t have far to go for a little hustle and bustle too. Transport links are good, too, with the nearby railway station offering direct trains to London and Portsmouth.
The yurt, which can sleep up to five, scored top marks for its location and cleanliness among past guests. Its waterside setting does mean, however, that families with young children should beware potential dangers.

10. Oak in Haslemere (from USD 144)
Although most of the yurts on this list are within Hampshire, there are a number of great options straddling the border with West Sussex. They offer the same great proximity to the South Downs National Park, as well as the coast, and are also within easy reach of such cities as Portsmouth. This very popular yurt is one such example - located deep in the heart of the national park and actually built using wood from nearby woods.
The property itself is perfect for couples and comes with access to a pod containing a fully-functional toilet and hot water shower - for those little home comforts. The yurt also boasts a small dining table area and has access to a deck with fully-equipped camp kitchen. Those who prefer to save the cooking for someone else can even order a dinner ‘room service’, so long as you provide 24 hours notice.

11. Drake - A luxurious yurt with harbour and sea views in Emsworth (from USD 141)
Set on the same Emsworth marina site as numbers two and six, this yurt also comes replete with some of the same luxury touches as its predecessors - even going so far as to have unique vintage furnishings and a stylish dining table for family meals. The yurt itself is perfect for couples, but can also accommodate an additional three children and, should you require accommodation for larger groups, you may be able to book one or more of the nearby yurts if availability allows.
As with its neighbours, this highly rated yurt won top marks from past guests for location and was also praised for its “amazing” decor and friendly hosts.
