Sapperton Yurt

Make your way down the winding farm track, take the footpath across a meadow and enter 30 acres of ancient woodland – welcome to Sapperton Yurt, an elegant and spectacular wonder of the wild tucked away under the canopy of the woods at Westley Farm.

Sapperton Yurt is a dream in cream canvas, handmade in Devon to a traditional Kyrgyz design by Yurts 4 Life, with a wood-burning stove, supremely comfy double bed, two single futon chairs, sheepskin rugs and throws galore. The yurt has a generous deck for loafing with a fully-equipped kitchen and everything you could need to cook up a storm, as well as Clipper tea, Fair Trade coffee, local organic milk and a bottle of chilled bubbly to ease your arrival. Below the deck is the horse box, complete with roll-top bath. Just fill the tub, soak in the hot water and enjoy the view of the woods.

A few steps away, there is a fire pit with log seating and a hammock for those lazy summer days. And when the call of nature comes, visit Sapperton Yurt’s loo with a view!
