Great check-in experience

Recent guests loved the smooth start to this stay.
A secluded off-grid reatreat complete with woodfired hot tub, BBQ area, fire pit, a compost toliet and stunning views! Sharing an old quarry with a Gypsy Caravan, it’s the ultimate place to relax and enjoy the beauty of the National Park.

The space
Our Yurt has been lovingly designed to be both beautiful and practical. In the middle of the Yurt is a kings size bed and round the sides is a bistro set, dresser and drawers, a butchers block for everything kitchen related and of course a windy smithy woodburning stove. The power is provided by solar panels and there are four USB ports which you can use.

Immediately outside the Yurt is a woodchipped area. There is a fire pit, water tap, bistro set and also a covered BBQ area for cooking at.

The compost toilet is a short walk away which is lit with solar powered fairy lights at night time.

The Yurt is situated inside of an old hill called Parks Howe. This was quarried out in the late 1800s for stone for the local roads and thus created a large hole with no occupants but the rabbits! The views from the hill are spectacular and you can see both ways up and down the Esk Valley as well as overlooking the moors.

The showers are a five minute walk away across the field at the farms campsite. We do have hot water at a sink next to the compost toilet.

Guest access
Guests park at the farm house a 5 minute walk away. I can take your luggage across to the Yurt in our buggy!

Neighborhood highlights

We are very lucky to live in the North Yorkshire Moors National Park and be only a 20 minute walk away from the pretty village of Lealholm. The village boasts many amenities including a good pub, great shop, post office, garden centre and tea rooms. Towards Danby is the National Parks Moors Centre which is a must for anyone wanting to get acquainted with the area. The area is amazing for walking and I am happy to help you out with any questions or suggestions for nearby walks.

Further afield is Whitby which is about a 20 minute drive away. There are many traditional moorland villages to explore all within a 30 minute drive including Rosedale, Goathland, Farndale, and Grosmont. The beautiful fishing villages of Staithes and Robin Hoods Bay are also well worth a visit.
