We are based in South Devon UK.

We are keen to support those aiming at off grid living and already have customers who are using our yurts for this purpose. We are now looking at how to incorporate furniture, lighting and other services into our products. If this is your dream we would like to hear from you.
We are also working with a number of local companies and organisations to provide yurt weddings, yurt honeymoons, and yurt holidays. We are regularly approached by people wishing to set up yurt holidays or camping yurts and are familiar with the issues (Planning, durability, furnishing, heating etc). If this is you, give us a ring for a friendly chat. If you have never stayed in a yurt, this is a good place to start. We are yurt enthusiasts and welcome contacts from individuals and companies who share this passion.
Yurts look good, feel good, and provide shelter that is aesthetically beautiful, sturdy and cost effective
If you have a dream structure let us help make it a reality for you
"You cannot fail to be stunned by the interior of this Yurt! It was absolutely fantastic and made our Wedding Day really special. Everyone was impressed by the beautifully crafted framework and how light it was inside. Rod and his team are the best; they were friendly, helpful and very efficient from start to finish. So if you are looking for a really impressive Yurt for your event then we would definitely recommend this one... You will not be disappointed." Mr & Mrs Ellaway - Devon
Yurts can be decorated in different styles but flowers and natural objects look stunning in a yurt.

"the yurt provides space for worship or meetings for up to 50 people. In winter the yurt is warm and cosy thanks to a log burning stove. In the summer the walls can be peeled back to let in the breeze and the summer sun" ("Outlook" magazine).
