Is Skylark Yurt at Walnut Farm Right For You?

Discover why this cottage is ideal for different types of visitors

For Families

Skylark Yurt sleeps only 2 guests so it is not designed for families with children. The on-site lake is unfenced which is an important safety consideration. The yurt is best suited to couples rather than families with young children.

For Couples

Skylark Yurt is built for two. A 6ft super kingsize bed, a private wood-fired hot tub overlooking the lake and no TV make it a proper switch-off break. Add a firepit, stargazing roof window and on-site wild swimming. Hard to beat for a romantic 8-Bedroom Hot Tub Farmhouse in Symondsbury.

Pet Friendly

Up to two pets are welcome at Skylark Yurt (charges apply). The farm has meadow footpaths and hedgerow walks on the doorstep. Note the on-site lake is unfenced so keep dogs under close control near the water.
