Whittlers Yurt

Old Pound Smithy

Whittlers Yurt

Escape to the truly magical and enchanting Whittlers Yurt.  Immerse yourself in a slower place of life and simply relax, spending days exploring the wonders of this rural idyll and returning to your little piece of heaven where you can spend evenings sitting back and star gazing. This really is the perfect couple’s romantic getaway retreat.

Whittlers Yurt is located in a secluded spot, nestled in amongst the willows,  with access to the owners’ lake and adjoining fields. Follow the meandering stream and you’ll discover a perfectly placed platform for meditation or yoga. The small lake invites you to relax or even take a picnic on the platform. This really is the place to relax and unwind.

The yurt has fabulous outside decking with a covered sunshade area, making this the perfect lazy afternoon spot and, of course, the obligatory barbecue for al fresco dining in style. Inside you’ll be wowed by the stylish and creative plantation vibe, eclectic furniture, Art Deco rugs and gorgeous adornments. The double bed sits in prime position to take full advantage of the fabulous toono window, the yurt’s most important aspect where earth meets light. Wake up after a restful night’s sleep in the opulent bed to the natural light filtering through, perfect. No yurt would be complete without the all-important log-burner, creating a warm and romantic glow on chillier evenings. Outside the yurt you’ll find a beautiful quaintly converted wooden incubation shed, crafted by the owners from old wardrobes and furniture, housing the small but perfectly formed kitchenette with electric hob, combination microwave and plenty of equipment for whipping up a creative meal. Off the kitchen you will find the well-appointed shower-room with WC and basin.

A unique Mongolian round yurt, Whittlers is a magical place with beautiful touches and quirky interiors, showing off the owners’ remarkable talent as a renowned blacksmith and artisan. Whittlers Yurt, once visited, is a place you will want to return to year after year.

Spent three nights for some peace and quiet away from home and the kiddies. Went on lovely walks along the coast. When we weren’t walking, we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing on the sun loungers or in the hot tub. The fish and chips were the best we’ve had and the Sunday roast in the pub next door was incredible too. Both less than a Mile walk. The village shop was great too for supplies.

A beautiful and tranquil location offering complete privacy and all the amenities you could need. The kitchen is compact but very well equipped, and the bathroom, though small, is clean and functional. The hot tub is a particular highlight—spotlessly maintained and wonderfully private.The yurt itself is excellent: cosy, comfortable, and thoughtfully furnished. With both the radiator and the log burner, it stayed warm and peaceful throughout our stay. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and I had one of the best nights’ sleep I’ve had in a long time.David, the host, was welcoming and attentive. He greeted us on arrival, ensured we had everything we needed, and promptly arranged logs for the burner.Overall, it was a wonderfully peaceful stay in a warm and inviting yurt. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing getaway.

The yurt is located in it's own private area surrounded by nature. It's well equipped with everything you need. Dave and Bex were very friendly and happy to help with any requests. The hot tub is fantastic!

Lovely stay in a brilliant area with fantastic and easy going hosts.The yurt and the facilities were spot on, and the app with all the information really handy too. Recommendations on local food and activities was ideal, had some amazing food and walks while we were here. Also really good fun to try the blacksmithing experience, would recommend giving it a try. If we could have stayed longer we would, we didn't want to leave!

We had the most gorgeous stay in the yurt! It was amazing, looked just like the pictures, and we felt very safe at all times! Our dog Ben had just as much fun as we did, and the dog shower was so handy! Thank you so much, we loved our stay and will be back again! :)

Such a lovely stay. Stayed for three nights and wish it was for longer! This is our second time back and will definitely be coming again. Only issue we had was with the hot tub it wasn’t quite as hot more warm than anything and the lights/remote for the hot tub didn’t work. Other than that it was such a peaceful enjoyable place to be.Thanks for having us!

Such a cool place to stay, I absolutely loved it! Amazing decor and surroundings, clear instructions and good amenities/facilities!My only two quarrells would be that the hot tub has no bubbles and it was only warm enough for use on the first night. The next morning it was cold and did not reheat at all for us to use again! Also the sky light and wood around it in the roof of the yurt could have done with a hoover! As there was so many spiders/spider webs, and a few spiders even decended down onto the bed! (however I do appreciate it is an outdoor yurt) Other than that everything is absolutely perfect and I would definitely be back again! Thankyou for having us !

Stunning views of the countryside, with a beautifully decorated yurt. Perfect pairing for a romantic anniversary. Simple luxuries exceed a "glamping" experience. Can't wait to visit again in a warmer month to enjoy the outside space

Had a very relaxing stay. The whole place was clean and was beyond expectations. Beautiful location, beautiful yurt. Loved relaxing in the hot tub. It was completely private. The yurt was very warm and cozy. Would highly recommend staying here and will be looking to go back again.

You could see the whole place was all designed by an artist, there were lots of different touches to make it really special. It was so warm, comfortable and it felt like being on a private island- I’ve stayed in a lot of places and this is by far the best I have ever been to. Don’t hesitate to book, we will definitely come again. The app is such a good idea and this place really made our first NYE as a couple very special. Thank you so much.
