## Overview

Nestled at the foot of the Chiltern Hills in a tree lined amphitheatre lies the small boutique glamping meadow of Chiltern Yurts.

Our luxurious and enchantingly authentic Mongolian yurts are ideal for a country retreat to relax and unwind in an idyllic setting. Go to sleep beneath the stars peeping over the ‘crown’ skylight and wake up to a tranquil oasis of nature and birdsong.

Surrounded by beautiful rural countryside, including miles of tucked away footpaths alongside the Grand Union Canal and Tring Reservoirs, ideal for walking and cycling, and abounding with wildlife.

Only 35 miles from London, escape from the city for a long weekend, or stay a while longer to fully savour the delights of the countryside.

Our unique and spacious yurts are entirely handmade and imported directly from Mongolia. Authentically designed and crafted, with colourful hand decorated woodwork, the cosy interiors are rustic and comfortable. The felt linings offer a truly luxurious experience. What really distinguishes an authentic yurt from other canvas structures is the stunning crown wheel at the centre of the roof and the solid wooden door instead of a zip!

Each yurt is self-contained, offering a private loo and shower hut, and its own cooking facilities including a BBQ and fire pit. Our guests are assured plenty of privacy and space to enjoy.

> The yurt was beautiful and facilities were really good. We had lots of fun with our 1-year-old (plenty of room for a travel cot etc). We loved seeing the red kite flying over us every morning.

> These was the most wonderful few days. I stayed in Red Kite with my 11 year old daughter. Every detail was perfectly considered and beautifully presented. The breakfast boxes were fabulous and we loved toasting our marshmallows over the fire pit and bbq boxes were perfect. (We saved the sausages for breakfast). The sun shone and we hunted for Easter eggs, played connect 4 in bed and went geocaching nearby. We enjoyed our hot water bottles and were able to make the yurt cosy. The bathroom exceeded expectations and we appreciated the pressure of the shower. We both declared it our favourite plac…

> We had the most AMAZING stay with Jim and Emma. The yurt was so beautiful, and the attention to detail was amazing, they gave us brownies and marshmallows to toast on the fire pit. They were so helpful and only a text away! The yurt had an amazing view, and since we were the only people there that weekend they put us in the Red Kite which had an even more beautiful view. The walks were amazing, and the gate to the path was just outside the field. We walked to the reservoirs/canals and had a lovely pub lunch, then we took a short taxi to Ivinghoe beacon for the most insane walk with beautiful v…

> Had a brilliant stay with Emma and Jim and the Red Kite yurt. Can’t recommend this more - everything was amazing. The yurt is in its own peaceful corner of a large field with lovely views across the fields. The yurt is beautifully spec’d and has everything you could need. The fire pit and bbq were perfect for a relaxed evening. And to have a fully equipped private bathroom was incredible. We had two nights there but felt like we’d had a proper holiday. We saw lots of birds including I’m sure a pair of Red Kites out hunting.
