1 night at Oakdean Cottage YurtI recently had the pleasure of staying at the Himalayan Yurt nestled in the heart of the Forest of Dean, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. This yurt is a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort, offering a peaceful retreat in nature without sacrificing convenience.
The outdoor area is breath taking, with a beautifully maintained garden complete with hammocks that are perfect for relaxing under the trees. There’s also an outdoor cooking and dining space, making it easy to enjoy meals in the fresh air. The outdoor fire pit/oven are a fantastic touch, ideal for cozy evenings by the fire, making your own wood-fired pizza.
Inside, the yurt is both cozy and spacious, with a wood-burning stove that adds warmth and ambiance, especially during cooler nights. The double bed is incredibly comfortable, and there’s a pull-out sofa for extra guests. The thoughtful seating arrangement, including a charming reading bench, provides plenty of space to relax. The décor is unique, full of character, and perfectly complements the natural surroundings.
The amenities are also impressive. The attached cottage has a well-equipped kitchen with tea and coffee facilities and a portable gas cooker for indoor meals. The double shower is spacious, with plenty of hot water, and the flushing toilet is a nice luxury, considering the remote setting.
Overall, the Himalayan Yurt is a hidden gem and perfect for a peaceful stay surrounded by nature but close enough to The Forest Of Dean.
