Elephant Yurt

Min Guests - 1

Max Guests - 8

The Elephant Yurt is an elegant and cosy large family yurt with sleeping accommodation for up to eight guests (two double and four single beds).

It’s nestled within a small wood alongside Sopley Lake which teems with wildfowl and is surrounded by pick-your-own fields. The Dorset coast at Christchurch is just a few short miles to the south, while the nearby countryside is ripe for exploring by foot, by bike or even by horse.

Our large luxury yurt for families, friends and special events comes equipped with all you need for a relaxing and entertaining holiday. That includes a fully equipped cooking station complete with gas rings, a barbecue and a 30-litre gas-powered chiller. The wood burner will keep you warm whatever the weather and you even have your own private bathroom with hot shower and flushing loo.

If the Elephant family yurt is free when you want to visit, you can book online now, but we have plenty of other yurts and bell tents to choose from if it’s not. Contact us now if you need help or just want to know more about Forest Yurts.
