About Fairy Bell Wood
The picturesque yurt sits in a quiet clearing within Fairy Bell Wood, four acres of native woodland and a large wildlife pond in Cumbria. This site is ideal for a couple looking to reconnect with nature and spend some quality time together. The handcrafted yurt sleeps two adults and includes a fully equipped kitchen and toasty wood burner. You'll also have a bespoke double bed built from the surrounding trees and the kitchen made from reclaimed palettes. Across the way is a bathroom with an eco-shower and compost toilet. Embrace the opportunity to slow down. Spend your time wandering through the glades, watching the dragonflies dance across the pond, relaxing in a hammock by the firepit, and enjoying sunset over the Fells with a glass of wine in hand. The site is just ten minutes from the M6 and Kendal, the local town. It's also a short drive to both the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Parks, perfect for hikers. BBQs are permitted as long as they are on gravel, and a firepit is provided. Pets are not permitted.
