Our beautiful handmade yurt is set amongst an ancient orchard on an idyllic smallholding, nestled between the Kent Downs AONB and Kent's spectacular coastline.
The smallholding itself is a slice of rural Kent with free-range chickens just a stone’s throw away, you’ll soon be making some fairly unique friends.
We have such a great location, Canterbury is just 10 minutes drive away and the trendy coastal town of Whitstable can be reached within 20 minutes.
Berty the yurty is 5 metres in diameter and comfortably sleeps 2 adults and an infant. Inside Berty you'll find a super comfy double bed, tea and coffee making facilities, a cracking little wood burning stove, table and two chairs and a mini-fridge to keep those all important beverages ice cold. We'll make sure there are some essential local food items from the farm (bread, eggs, milk, butter) waiting for you when you arrive.
Outside you an outdoor kitchen space to cook, outdoor patio eating area, camp fire, as well as a composting toilet, hot shower and washing up facilities adjacent to Berty, which are exclusively for your use.
Berty is tucked away at the far end of the smallholding on the edge of a 20 acre accessible ancient woodland with bluebells flowering in the months of April & May. The small holding is home to free range chickens and other animals. Eggs are complimentary and we're more than happy to arrange for you to collect them yourself if you're in a 'hunter/gatherer' sort of mood as well as a loaf of bread, milk, butter and apple juice.
Our rural location is truly fantastic! You'll instantly feel the stresses and strains of everyday life disappear as you soak up the delightful Kent countryside and adjacent ancient woodland. The picturesque Stour valley is just down the road, Canterbury and it's cathedral are only 10 mins away and Kent's extensive coastline can be reached in less than 20 mins. Some delightful pubs and restaurants can be found in Canterbury, and you are spoilt for choice when it comes to top quality country pubs in the local area.

Beautiful campsite! It was so well maintained and cleaned by Alex. She was so friendly, welcoming and easy to reach! The showers are gas powered so there was hot water, plus they had a wonderful view - such a luxury! The glamping tent was beautiful, spacious and comfortable. Unfortunately the fire ban had come in before we arrived however this had no effect on our stay! Thank you so much we had a wonderful stay ❤️

2 nights at Glamping at Bressingham Gardens
Wonderful glamping site in a meadow with one other tent. It was so nice to be able to wander around the gardens after they had closed and early in the morning! There was noticeable traffic noise during the night but that was mentioned in the details. A proper shower would be a great addition but again the lack of that was expected. As the public can see the tent from the gardens it would have been nice to have a couple of padlocks. Overall though highly recommend - a wonderful escape and after hours access to the gardens was priceless! Many thanks!

Lovely peaceful paddock with a really comfortable double bed in our bell tent. Great hot showers and good facilities. We also enjoyed the hammock and swing chairs and stopping by to say hello to the chickens in the mornings! Very close to the beautiful beach at Seasalter and we really enjoyed our oysters in Whitstable too. A lovely relaxing few days, would recommend.

Great views! Nice and quiet - only sound is birdsong of an evening. Staying in Esmarelda was a cosy few nights for me and a great experience. Alex is a great host and always at hand if you need any assistance. I highly reccommend.

Fleets Paddock is a truly magical place. We were a group of families returning once again and had the best time - the kids didn’t want to leave.
The Periwinkle was comfortable and clean. We had everything we needed to have an easy and restorative few days in the Kent countryside.

Weekend Trip to Berty the yurty
I decided to book a spontaneous trip away for my girlfriends birthday and this Yurt was absolutely perfect for a quiet weekend getaway. Great views, peace and quiet, you're left to your own devices and the farm itself is very close to nearby shops and main city centre which was a massive help for getting food in. Staying in a yurt was a first for me but I can happily say id do it again and definitely recommend staying here!
George is great as a host leaving eggs, apple juice, some bread amd butter for us upon welcome and is great with communication in case of any questions/concerns you might have during your stay. Excellent place overall, 10/10 stay!

We had a fantastic stay at Cosy Camping. The pod was immaculately clean and super cosy. It felt luxurious having our own toilet and shower in the pod, the kitchen was well equipped and it was just what we were looking for in an autumn glamping trip. The site itself was great with loads of space to run around and play. We hope to return!
