Glamping or glamorous camping has become one of the most popular trends. Yurts have gained popularity ever since the concept was introduced in the UK. While camping makes an explorer live life with the most minimal amenities, glamping takes that to the next level and offers top notch camping experience minus the discomforts that one has to face. Yurts, meanwhile, offer a luxurious, high-end glamping spot experience that will help you and your loved ones create amazing memories. You can toast some marshmallows, wear some mitts and dance to the tune of classics in your PJs. That’s what camping is all about. And don’t forget to share some horror stories to add to the entire atmosphere. Does this fascinate you? Keep reading for our list of the best yurts in England.

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 09, 2024.

1. Charming world of yurt living with awe-inspiring valley views (from USD 49)

Step into the charming world of yurt living, surrounded by awe-inspiring valley views. This magical abode boasts a cozy kitchen, a dedicated workspace, and a private patio or balcony to immerse yourself in nature’s tranquility. Embrace the wonders of the garden and delight in the melodies of birds and Tawny Owls.

Snuggle up by the indoor wood-burning fireplace on chilly evenings, adding a touch of warmth and character. The former dairy outhouse houses a convenient shower and toilet, while a short stroll will lead you to the fridge. Keep an eye out for passing walkers and perhaps catch a glimpse of a steam train!

Don’t forget your wellies and head torches for those extra adventures, and if you’re a cat lover, you’ll be thrilled to meet the friendly feline resident. Families with kids are welcome, but it’s essential to discuss any potential hazards beforehand.
