There’s a huge amount of choice when searching for family glamping holidays today. A wonderful variety of sites offering accommodation ranging from: Wigwam Huts, Pods, Cabins, Treehouses, Shepherds Huts, Bell Tents, to Yurts ….and that’s just to mention some of the common ones before we get onto the Double Decker Buses and Jet Planes out…

Yurt Setup
Well Spring is here, and that can only mean one thing at Somerset Yurts – yurt set up!! The yurts have to come out of their Winter hibernation and get ready for a brand new season! I thought I would share a few pictures of us setting up Furzeclose yurt, as it’s quite an operation…
