Yurt Holiday Village is a small glamping site near Swanage on the Isle of Purbeck in Dorset, letting a handful of hand-made Mongolian yurts with no touring, caravan or tent pitches. The yurts range in size and come with wood-burning stoves for warmth and simple cooking, plus double and single futon beds, and toilets and showers are shared on site. The location is a strong draw: Swanage town, its sheltered sandy bay and the Victorian pier are close by, while Durlston Country Park, Corfe Castle, the Swanage Railway and the South West Coast Path are all within a short drive. Campfires are permitted and dogs are welcome, so it suits families and dog owners who want a back-to-nature stay with a bit of comfort rather than hotel-style facilities. It is glamping only, so it is not an option for anyone towing a caravan or pitching their own tent. The few reviews online are mixed, so it helps to know you are booking a simple, low-key yurt site rather than a large managed park. The operator's own website for Yurt Holiday Village is currently offline, so confirm availability, opening dates and prices directly before booking.
