Yurts near a forest

Yurts in the woods: your next adventure starts here

Do you secretly dream of waking up to the sound of birds instead of your phone’s insistent alarm? Time to swap the city for the forest and check into a yurt! Experience the magic of glamping in a cozy yurt at the edge of the woods—where wildflowers might outnumber WiFi bars, but trust us, you won’t even miss them. Welcome to the world of yurts in the woods, where comfort and adventure go hand in hand. (And yes, there’s an actual bed. Your back will thank you later.)

What makes a yurt so special?

A yurt isn’t your average tent. These round, wood-framed tents have been used for centuries by nomads in Central Asia—so you’ll be joining a long tradition of sleeping in style. Imagine a canvas roof above your head, sturdy wooden floors below, and windows with enchanting forest views. Add a pellet stove for chilly evenings and a plush rug (because even adventurers appreciate warm toes), and you’ve got yourself a stay that’s rustic, but never roughing it.

Yurts in the forest are a world away from stuffy hotel rooms. Here, mornings come with the gentle rustling of leaves and evenings fade under a sky full of stars. The only thing you’ll need to worry about is whether to start your day with birdsong or a cup of excellent local coffee. Or, you know, why not both?

The joys of glamping among the trees

Forget the days of flattening a tent floor and fighting with tent poles. In a yurt, all you have to do is arrive and start relaxing. Beds are made, electricity is often available (handy for fairy lights or charging your camera), and you’ll probably find unexpected touches of luxury—think private terraces, en-suite bathrooms or even a hot tub with a forest view.

Whether you’re traveling as a couple, with the kids, or as a solo nature lover looking to escape the daily grind, there’s a yurt for everyone. Kids can roam free, build stick forts, and let their imaginations go wild, while adults can finally finish that book (or at least a nap).

And when you’re ready to explore, the woods are waiting: hiking, cycling, or simply getting lost (in a good way) under a canopy of green. There’s really no app for that.

Why choose a yurt in the woods for your next vacation?

Yurts are the glamping sweet spot: more adventurous than a holiday home, far more comfortable than a sleeping bag on hard ground, and the perfect excuse to disconnect from the hustle of everyday life. Nested among the trees, you can experience real tranquility—without giving up your favorite creature comforts.

From breakfast on your private deck to marshmallows by a crackling fire, life is just better in a yurt. The only thing you’ll be wondering is why you didn’t try this sooner.
