The Owner Says

Woodpecker yurt is located in a lovely spot further into the woods, near the marquee, at the far end of the campsite.
It is a British made yurt of fine quality, with a gorgeous oak door, and can sleep a family of 6.
Furnished with a king-sized bed and 4 single mattresses, (that can be piled up in the day and arranged at night time to suit you).  You'll also find antique rugs, sheepskins, a small table and stools, wool blankets, and a woodburning stove (with a unique handmade fireguard), to keep you cosy.  Tea light lanterns and fairy lights provide magical ambient lighting.
It's such a cosy and atmospheric space for the whole family to enjoy, or a really spacious special treat for a couple.
(Please note:  As standard we just provide a king-size duvet, and pillows, WITHOUT COVERS - please either bring your own bed linen, or if you'd like your beds made up ready for you, select hire bed-linen at checkout).

Your outside space includes; a large fire pit area, a hammock, wooden seating, a small handmade BBQ, and a picnic table.
You have your own compost loo situated close to the yurt, and your shower is located next to the fully equipped communal kitchen a few metres away.  Woodpecker even has use of a bath!

The wood-fired hot tub is close to Woodpecker yurt, and can be booked for an extra cost.
The wood-fired pizza oven is not far, and available to use too. (There is a charge for the wood needed to heat the pizza oven/hot tub).

Communal under canvas sitting and eating areas are nearby.  Plus a table tennis table, for that family game of ping pong!

There are woodland swings nearby, and paths to explore. The site offers amazing freedom for children in a safe environment.
We are a 20 minute walk, or a 5 minute drive away, from the River Wye. Great for picnics, wild swimming, paddling, and canoeing. Hire a canoe from Hereford Canoe Hire at Tresseck in Hoarwithy, for a great day out. (seasonal)

Food & Drink

Pengethley Farm Shop in Peterstow (01989 730430) stocks local and organic food and drink.  Merrimilk honesty box and vending machine has fresh organic milk, organic veg, meat, cakes and more - 2.4 miles away at Merrivale Farm.  The New Harp Inn in nearby Hoarwithy has good food, and a great beer garden (01432 840900).

Family Friendly

Apart from falling off a tree swing, or tripping over a guy rope, there’s little for even the most anxious of parents to worry about here. A ‘no cars inside the campsite’ policy means kids of all ages can dash about willy-nilly. Running wild in the woods, making dens, swinging on old tyres and rope ladders. Making home-made biscuits in the clay oven. Playing in the sand-pit. Pushing your friends around in a wheelbarrow.
