The yurt sleeps upto two adults and two children. There’s a Kingsize double bed and a double futon, with sheets, pillows and duvets for each.
Your own fire pit BBQ is provided and there also is a shared outdoor kitchen. This has a gas burner for cooking, a sink and all the pans, cutlery and crockery you might need. A starter pack of wood for the stove and fire pit BBQ, matches, firelighters and kindling is included.
The yurt itself is completely off grid. Candle lamps provide light, and the lack of light pollution makes for exceptional star gazing, though do bring a torch!
Bore Place, where the yurt is located is an environmental charity and organic dairy farm, pioneering renewable energy and reconnection with the natural world and the production of food. As a working farm there are various hazards - ponds, farm machinery etc. If you have children please make sure you supervise them.
There’s your own private composting toilet, just behind the yurt, and toilets and a shower at the centre reception a couple of fields away (around 200m).
As the yurt is in a meadow, it’s not possible to drive cars right up to it. Cars can be parked in the centre carpark, just near the toilets and shower and your luggage rolled to the yurt on our trolley.
Smoking is allowed outside, but not in the Yurt itself.
The pictures currently show our yurt from 2017, we've two new yurts coming in 2018 of the same design, but that'll be made of khaki canvas with olive green detailing. The shared kitchen will be further away from the yurts.
Come to the centre reception when you arrive, where we'll welcome you, give you the keys and direct you to the yurt. There's full instructions of how everything works and where it all is, in your yurt and I'll give you my mobile number in case you need anything during your stay.
If you're coming by train from London the quickest way is to get the London Bridge to Sevenoaks train (25mins) and then a taxi to the yurt (15mins).
As it's such a lovely place, increasingly people are getting married here. As such if you're staying on a Saturday night there may be a wedding in Bore Place house. It's about 100m away, but otherwise so quiet that sound can travel. If you're coming for tranquility, then message me with your dates and I'll find out if there's a wedding booked.
Penshurst station is the closest, about three miles away, with a train every hour from Victoria during the week(about 50mins). You can arrange a taxi to meet your train from Greenline Taxis.
Tonbridge and Hildenborough are on the Charing Cross/London Bridge and Blackfriars lines, with trains at least every 15mins (takes about 45mins) and are both about five miles away and both have taxi companies at the stations Hildenborough.
