Yurtcamp Devon is the ultimate glamorous camping, or glamping, yurt holiday for those who seek the simplicity of living under canvas without giving up the quality and comfort of more conventional holidays.
Come glamping at Yurtcamp Devon - Glamping has become very popular in recent years, and Yurtcamp has been there since the start of the glamping holiday movement. We are always looking for ways to make glamping in Devon at Yurtcamp more glamorous .......
Our glamping site has twenty two contemporary yurts of two sizes set in forty acres of beautiful Devon woodland. The smaller yurts are ideal for couples, and the larger yurts ideal for up to six to accommodate family and friends. Each yurt has a log burner and is fully equipped for cooking, sleeping (in beds just like you have at home!) and relaxing in, and has access to an outdoor fire pit, for campfires and barbecues.
What Is It Like Staying In A Contemporary Yurt?
The simple answer is just imagine taking all of the best bits of camping and losing all of the not so good bits. A Contemporary Yurt is a bright, spacious circular structure consisting of a wooden frame with a lattice wall, a durable, insulated and waterproof fabric cover and a solid locking door. Our guests love the viewing dome through which as night falls you can relax looking at the sky. Although generally classified as a tent, a Contemporary Yurt is far more spacious (even for the tallest person), much stronger and weather tight.

We Love Campfires
These days, few campsites allow fires, but here at Yurtcamp we love the crackling of a campfire and the smell of wood smoke in the air. We feel it’s an essential part of your holiday experience and positively encourage you to make a fire in your fire pit and enjoy the primal satisfaction it offers.
Many a tale is told and memories made around the campfire.
