Island Yurt is a welcoming 20‑foot yurt set beside the owner’s fishing lake on the edge of the village of Beckford, close to the Gloucestershire and Worcestershire border within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
One of a small collection on site yet feeling pleasingly private, it offers couples a quietly distinctive place to slow down and settle into the rhythm of their surroundings, boasting a bubbling hot tub and a sauna.
Arrive and park nearby, then pause as the water and surrounding calm immediately soften the mood.
Step inside to a single-storey, studio-style space where the layout unfolds naturally, with each area carefully considered to support relaxed, easy living.
Bags can be set aside and shoes kicked off as the yurt gently encourages you to settle in. The kitchen forms a central part of the space, well suited to everyday cooking and unhurried meals, with an induction hob and combination microwave oven making it easy to fry something fresh or warm supper once the evening draws in. With a dishwasher quietly taking care of the washing up, time is freed up for lingering over food at the table or easing back into the comfort of the sitting area.
As the day fades, the gas woodburner-effect stove brings a sense of warmth and atmosphere, creating a natural place to unwind.
Lower the roll-down screen, choose a DVD, and enjoy a pared-back film night that fits the calm character of the yurt.
Later, the double bed offers a comfortable place to end the day, allowing the quiet setting to shape a slower evening routine.
For deeper relaxation, the indoor two-person sauna provides a welcome retreat, ideal for warming up before rinsing off in the luxurious walk-in rain shower.
Set just off the main living space, the shower room feels indulgent without interrupting the open flow of the yurt.
Outside, the wooden veranda stretches along the water’s edge, creating a natural extension of the living space.
Sink into the private hot tub as the lake lies still nearby, fire up the barbecue for relaxed outdoor meals, or gather around the fire pit as dusk settles and the flames begin to flicker.
With outdoor furniture arranged for lingering, mornings and evenings here invite you to stay put and enjoy the setting at your own pace.
Guests are also welcome to take the rowing boat out onto the lake or spend peaceful hours fishing on site, with a variety of freshwater species adding to the gentle rhythm of days spent outdoors.
A well‑behaved dog is welcome too, making Island Yurt a thoughtfully arranged escape shaped around the pleasure of open surroundings, warming comforts, and unhurried time together.
Escape to something special at Island Yurt.
Note: This property can be booked with Refs. 11980, 6017 and 921614, together sleeping up to 8 people.

Accommodation as described, lovely getaway. Lakes were a lovely view but could do with better fishing facilities ie pegs and maybe a few bushes cut down on other lake to be able to cast out.
Close for travelling to other areas.
Owners very polite and helpful :)

We have stayed there before so we knew the pros and cons. The cooker was still incomprehensible to me but I managed the hob this time. A problem we had with the projector was dealt with swiftly and efficiently. The position was lovely and the dog enjoyed his walks in the woods. It was so peaceful and great for watching birds.
