Yurt vacation rentals in East Devon District

We wanted a place where our family could connect, the children could experience a different way of life (we’re townies!) and our lungs could fill with fresh air. Moonacre Yurt hit the spot!! Surrounded by chickens, cows and Mother Nature, we soaked up as much of the atmosphere and Dide’s knowledge as possible. What a wonderful host, encouraging the kids to collect fresh eggs and talking to them about biodynamic farming, such a pleasure! Not a place for those of you wanting creature comforts (compost toilet, walk outside the yurt to get to bathroom and kitchen) but oh so wonderful for a snippet of the good life...

Me and my 4yo daughter stayed for a few nights this week to spend time together before she starts school. Julia was so helpful in every sense of the word; when we arrived my little dog hurt its foot and she immediately called a vet to help us. Julia was so friendly and accommodating for us which you don’t always get with airbnb hosts. The location was perfect, the views, surroundings were just what we needed to live a little off grid for a few days, and just be together. Julia made us a lovely breakfast hamper the morning we left which was a nice gesture. I urge anyone to stay here! We didn’t quite get the hot tub working but I know if I had an extra pair of hands it would have been blissful. Thank you Julia, I hope we can come back to visit your wonderful farm again.

Despite the weather taking a turn and it being incredibly wet most the weekend, we throughly enjoyed our stay at the yurt. The yurt itself is very cosy. We bought our projector and screen so we could snuggle up and watch some films with the wood burner going, and the sound of the rain just made it that bit cosier. We loved the hot tub, though we only used it one of the nights we stayed. The farm shop on site is such a fabulous perk of staying here, we grabbed some nice beers/posh vodka, and snacks and nibbly bits, and we popped in and checked out the vintage/antique shop too. Being so close to the farm animals was also really sweet and we both loved the pig. Overall we made the most of our stay and had a really lovely time.

Our whole group had a fantastic weekend away at this beautiful spot. The rain didn't dampen our spirits as the facilities were perfect. The gorgeous yurt made a wonderful communal space & the firepit provided a magical outside spot. The tents were very comfortable & had everything we needed. We would highly recommend this private getaway & could not fault it. 10 out of 10!!

Had an absolutely lovely couple of nights at the site for New Year's. The site was peaceful and in a beautiful location. The yurt was amazing, excellent wood burner, lovely furnishings and the heated sheets were great too. Nick was very welcoming and helpful (we didnt get the chance to meet Molly), lovely chap and we made use of the table tennis and i braved a dip in the lake, which was great! Close proximity to several pubs and plenty of food options in Bridport itself too, as well as many amazing areas to visit on the Jurassic Coast. We will happily be back at some point, this has been one of the best Airbnb visits ive had, so would highly recommend to anyone thinking of going!

our llittle family get away, last minute was amazing Phil and sera are amazing hosts from start to finish, nothing was every to much. The beds are so comfortable 😀 I need to know where the double bed mattress is from.🫠 would definitely be back. thank you from the Roberts

What a place this is. I always spend a while on air b&b trying to find somewhere good to stay at a reasonable price…. This surpasses that! The yurts are way bigger than expected, the communal area is awesome and has everything you need, shower room is great. The kids absolutely loved every minute of it, we had some real, money can’t buy quality family time. (Amazing what 2 days of no screens can do!) We will , 110% be back for a longer stay again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Jerry was a very friendly and welcoming host. Really easy to find and fabulous location. Far reaching views were breathtaking. Yurt was spacious with a private bathroom that made it unique and extremely private. Thank you Jerry, hope to visit again soon!

A very memorable stay, Amanda's listing has beautiful photos but they don't do the place justice! A wonderful way to have a truly relaxing, off grid experience but we were by no means slumming it! Amanda and Tom have kitted out the yurt and accompanying cabin with everything you could possibly need and more. The bed was extremely comfy and we were toasty warm despite it being well into October.

Extremely beautiful and peaceful spot, very private, brilliantly equipped to be comfortable but also in keeping with its natural surroundings and nature. Lovely, responsive hosts. Worth every penny for a restorative break in idyllic countryside.

What a wonderful place!! absolutely stunning, each area is absolutely beautiful, inside and out. the yurt and beds very comfy with electric blankets. kitchen area with table and shower, outdoor bath and sauna perfect!! under shelter fire, hammocks and seating area all wonderful. connected with nature and left feeling refreshed. highly recommed staying here!!! Thank you so much for your kind hospitality and sharing your lovely space with us.

This is glamping at it’s best. All the benefits of getting away from it all and back to basics in the countryside, with the luxury of home comforts in a beautiful private peaceful setting. Sam & Rich had thought of everything to make it a wonderful stay. The biscuits and cider on arrival was a lovely welcome. There’s so much to do on the doorstep; walking, beach days and great food. We hope to come back in the future.

An amazing place to stay. James was very proactive and made sure we had everything needed. It was a nice touch to have a bottle of fresh milk and orange juice in the fridge. The yurt has got everything you need for a break away. The beds are very comfy, the bathroom on the side is clean and the shower is nicely hot (you really do need it when the weather fails you!). The surroundings are to kill for. I was waking up to a sunset with deers running around. Can’t ask for anything else with my morning coffee 😊 Kids and I are already planning another weekend away at the yurt.

great stay, surprised the wife and three children under 5yrs. they loved it, so much for the kids to do. Many happy memories made.

We had a great time and will definitely be returning again soon! We hiked the west Dorset to three peaks and returned to sit in the hot tub peacefully to recover from our hikes, Everything was perfect! Highly recommended *****

Our stay was perfect at Lydia’s yurt, beautiful location and surroundings, we relaxed and enjoyed the peace and quiet. Very cosy inside the yurt, atmospheric and charming. Thank you

Will return to this gem of a place, probably in the spring. It’s a unique experience that was lovely and private and peaceful. A decent size space inside the yurt with everything you need. Lovely showers,and handy kitchen area just a few steps from the yurt. Perfect, lovely hosts. Look forward to returning!

If you looking for weekend away to recharge your batteries this is the place to stay. Very welcoming and extremely quiet. The cafe on site is amazing and always our first port of call in the morning. Plenty of space to make you feel isolated between other tents. I will be definitely recommending black pig retreat to friends and family.

Highly recommend, a great place to stay if you just want to relax and unwind wilt a beautiful view of the English countryside. Some fantastic walks from the site itself, especially the Hill Fort. Great access to the Jurassic Coast and all of the lovely Dorset villages. The Yert was beautiful, very warm, cosy and clean. Emily was very helpful and lovely to talk to, We will definitely be going back. Thanks again Mike, Klaudia and Finn 🐕

First of all, Camilla is an amazing host. Very kind, friendly, very communicative, made sure that my friend and I had everything we needed. It was such a lovely touch to find a box of fresh eggs, milk and biscuits with a lovely welcome card. The place itself was wonderful, the yurt was very cosy, the bed super comfortable, the kitchen had everything that we needed, the bathroom was very warm. It's a very well thought through place with a massive beautiful garden. I only regret we stayed there one night but I feel I will be back. I don't remember last time I felt so relaxed.. Thank you once again for this beautiful experience, Camilla! ☺️🥰

A delightful, quirky rural escape with plenty of Somerset’s attractions on your doorstep. A few suggestions for your stay: Embrace being woken at dawn by the birdsong. (Or bring an eye mask and ear plugs). The day’s sun will keep the yurt toastie, but you’ll probably need the fire of the evening. My escapes don’t involve me cooking, but if you want to, you may need a few extras eg forks, chopping board, seasonings and enough imagination to work your magic with a two-ring gas burner and a kettle. There’s plenty of nearby pubs, we enjoyed the Oakhill Inn. There’s a little bit of a walk/dash to the facilities block, I’d suggest a dressing gown and an umbrella. And finally, no need to worry about bad weather; we survived an incredible thunderstorm and lightning and everything was good. In all a lovely alternative stay, we adored the location and the work that’s gone in to making this an environmentally-friendly wildlife spot.

We stayed in the Yarlington yurt which was absolutely wonderful, almost like something from a fairytale. We were given excellent instructions on how to get to and access the property and facilities and it was very well appointed. The only disappointments were well beyond the control of the owners in that the weather was terrible, so we were unable to make the best of the available facilities in the fire pit and barbeque. One other point of note is that if you are planning to eat at the local pub, do make a booking. They were unable to accommodate us as they were fully booked and were also asked to drink outside despite being half empty. I would heartily recommend staying at Torre Cider Farm and would love to go back in better weather.

We had the best time at Tim's place! The location exceeded our expectations, it was so peaceful with loads to do and we even saw the resident deer a couple of times. We had a hammock, swings for the kids, a badminton court, firepit area with loads of wood. But make sure you are up for a steep walk to and from the car park as not suited for people with any knee or ankle issues. The yurt was spectacular too with everything you would expect and the furnishings are beautiful 🐝! Thank you Tim for a lovely stay!

The place is so nice especially with nature lovers, secure and we have a privacy. Angus is approachable, quick to response with our messages. We really enjoyed staying in Angus place. We were thankful for extra bonus the 5 free range eggs.
