So, it arrived from Mongolia on Monday.  By Wednesday, after 20 man-hours, of building it was installed ready for dinner. 

It’s much taller than our other yurts and it’s extremely impressive – oh and we love it!

But it’s not just us…

Veronica – who had us sneak it in for her husbands birthday while he was on a business trip – said it was “just the best thing” she could have done.  In between making us bacon rolls (fantastic) she ran about the garden going “I love it, I love it!!

“I looked all over the internet,” she said, “and everyone else is just hiring out canvas tents that look like yurts.  These are completely different – they’re real rooms and they’re so much more cosy!  On a cold October night with the temperature down to 6 degrees we were sooo toasty and warm that 20 of us sat there until 4 o’clock in the morning. We couldn’t have done that in a flimsy canvas version.” she said,  ”and please quote me on that”.

Well there we are – consider it quoted!!
