Guests say
Guests have found 'The Lakeside Yurt' to be a tranquil and idyllic retreat, offering a unique glamping experience with stunning lake views and abundant wildlife. The hot tub and privacy are frequently praised, and the property's setting in nature provides a perfect backdrop for relaxation and recharging.
The majority of guests have reported the yurt to be clean, with fluffy towels and robes adding to the comfort. However, a few mentioned that the outdoor area and some facilities could benefit from additional attention.
The location is consistently described as beautiful and peaceful, with easy access to local towns and nature. The lakeside setting and wildlife are highlights for many visitors.
Guests find the yurt comfortable, with a particularly comfortable bed and luxurious touches like a roll-top bath. The warmth of the yurt and the outdoor seating area are also appreciated.
Facilities such as the hot tub and kitchen are well-received, but some guests noted that maintenance could be improved, such as the boat needing to be cleaned and the hot tub light fixed.
While many reviews express appreciation for the amenities and the welcoming nature of the hosts, there is no specific mention of gifts, and therefore it is not possible to assess the thoughtfulness in terms of gifts.

Heating was broken and as for the boat, well you wouldn't want to risk it. A massive disappointment for us.
