Oakdean Cottage Yurt

Self contained and cosy yurt in the magical Forest of Dean. Private facilities and garden area in the grounds of an old forest smallholding.

Wood burner for chilly nights and campfire area. The Yurt at Oakdean Cottage is a gorgeous place to unwind and breathe. Everything you need for a peaceful stay right on the south east edge of the Forest of Dean. The yurt has an extremely comfortable double bed and a pull out sofa double bed, with clean wood flooring and vintage and upcycled furniture finds. A wood burner provides heat on chilly ni

ghts - and it does get very cosy when it is lit! The yurt is built into a steep hillside on a raised decking platform between the trees, with steps up to the door and gorgeous views of rolling countryside. A modern fitted bathroom with hot water, shower, and flushing loo are 20 meters from the yurt, which is private for your sole use for the duration of your stay (as are all of the facilities described here). The small kitchenette also has a washing up sink, hot water, a kettle, toaster, and kitchen essentials. There is an outdoor cooking area with a campfire grill for BBQ or campfire cooking, and a separate covered seating area with a camping electric oven and hob if lighting a fire feels too much! There are hammocks in the trees for complete relaxation. You will have a dedicated parking space a short walk from the yurt (approx 40 meters along uneven hillside paths), and there is a large garden area to enjoy when not out roaming. The yurt is insulated with a hybrid of modern insulation and traditional yaks wool, which keeps some of the heat out in the summer and more heat inside in the autumn and spring. We love it here, and we hope you will too. You can see reviews from previous guests on our website: www.oakdeancottage.com

While our track is steep and bumpy, the views across the valley on a misty morning are magical. .

We (Debbora and Chris) moved to the Forest of Dean just over 4 years ago to enjoy a more self sufficient lifestyle and a beautiful environment for our children to grow. We have creative backgrounds in the music industry (both of us) and film industry (Chris) alongside a strong DIY ethic and family background in the building trade... nothing is impossible to us!! We journeyed through life taking risks on projects big and small and when we finally arrived at this beautiful place it seemed right to create a way to share the views, the air, the bird song, the chance encounters with deer, boar, birds, and bees.

We put our heart and soul into everything - choosing vintage furniture or upcycling, and using found objects to create useful things in the bathroom and kitchenette.

We work together as a couple to make sure your stay is perfect; choosing perfect firewood, comfy bedding, and working with our lovely cleaner Rita to make sure everything is spotless for your arrival.

Over the past 3 years we have had a lot of great guests and great reviews, and we strive to improve on anything that may have been even slightly less than perfect.

We love taking little holidays in the yurt, our lovely little round space. Would you like to try it out? Pop us a message and we will see what we can do!
