Glamping is a combination of the words glamorous and camping – go glamping and you can enjoy all of the benefits of camping, but with a nice comfy bed in your luxurious yurt all ready for you at the end of the day!
Glamping is all about being close to nature and enjoying the great outdoors just like camping, but with a few more home comforts. It’s about making the camping experience easier, without removing the great reasons people go camping in the first place.
Who ten years ago outside of Mongolia had even heard of them?! The yurt, or ger as it is known in Mongolia itself, has been in use for thousands of years. A round tent covered with animal skins or felt (we use felt here!), it has a very unique design. The structure comprises an angled latticework made of wood for walls, a door frame, roof poles, and a crown in the centre. Traditionally the yurt would be portable, used by nomads, and designed to be dismantled and the parts carried compactly on camels or yaks.
Here at Hidden Valley Yurts all of our yurts are authentic Mongolian yurts. They are waterproof and thickly lined for cosy warmth on cooler days. Because of this insulation it takes less than half an hour for the wood burning stove to heat them up. The large crown in the centre lets in natural light when needed and the rain cap can be removed for star gazing on fine evenings.
Mongolian yurts have been growing in popularity in the UK over the last few years due to them being an ecologically friendly, attractive and cosy way of enjoying sleeping outdoors without the hassles of pitching a tent.
