The location and environment is lovely. The yurt itself is not up to standard. The door lock is rusty/corroded, if you lock it at night expect to climb out the window to get out. The hot tub shows no signs of maintenance, the water seemed over used/murky and the filters need cleaning, no signs of chlorine in the water (is there evidence of it being maintained for holiday let use?), the sauna didnât heat up any more than 59 degrees (recommendation is about 75 degrees), so we couldnât use sauna or hot tub. kettle is rusty/corroded and a few Tupperware bowls would have been nice, as well as, instructions on how to use the convection oven and induction hob. We left after 24hrs of our stay. Too many issues!

My only concern this time is the weeds at the back of the yurt need keeping down , I photograph the wildlife and its makes it difficult to capture a decent picture. Apart from that perfect relaxing holiday. Sarah as helpful as always .
