A “perfect pastoral idyll”, Westley Farm comprises 70 magnificent acres of Cotswolds countryside, and has been featured in publications including the Times, the Daily Telegraph, and the Observer.
It isn’t difficult to see why. Set within a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, bustling central London is a mere hour-and-a-bit away by train. Yet there’s an other-worldly feeling of magic and wonder that will captivate you from the moment you arrive.
Simply make your way along the winding farm track and across the meadow to discover Sapperton Yurt nestled beneath the ancient, whispering woodland canopy.
Sleeping up to two adults and two children, one well-behaved dog is also welcome to stay… so the whole family can experience the laid-back, eco-friendly ambience and thoughtful attention to detail you’ll experience here.
Expertly hand-made in Devon to a traditional Kyrgyz design, the creamy canvas yurt comes complete with a relaxing wood-burning stove and a delightfully comfy double bed, with two single futon chairs for the kids and a wealth of butter-soft throws and rugs.
Step outside to be greeted by a generous deck for lazy afternoon lounging, along with a covered, well-equipped kitchen for whipping up country-style feasts.
(Stuck for ingredients? Stroud’s famous farmers’ market is just four miles away, or order a sumptuous local-produce Westley Farm hamper for your stay).

More information
Just below your deck is a creatively-converted horsebox… which contains a sumptuous roll-top bathtub, just waiting to be filled with hot water and unwound in with a glass of wine, as you gaze out at the wildlife-steeped woodland.
Prefer curling up with a good book, or getting lost in deep conversation? Wander along to the firepit, complete with log seating and a hammock to help you while away a few stray holiday hours.
What you’ll do with the rest of them is completely up to you! The local pub – a traditional Cotswolds inn with open beams and plentiful outdoor seating – is a 20-minute stroll away, across lush open fields.
Stay on site and learn woodcraft skills at the forest school, or watch the abundant local wildlife going about its day… you could spot everything from buzzards and badgers to rare butterflies and grazing deer.
Or if you’re in the mood to explore, the Roman market town of Cirencester and the ancient open common of Minchinhampton are both perfect settings for an immersive day out.

“Beautiful, idyllic setting in a secluded part of woodland in a glade carpeted with wild garlic and bluebells. There was nothing to dislike, with everything exceeding expectations. We particularly liked the huge roll top bath with an open side overlooking the trees, the comfy bed with crisp white bedding and fluffy pillows and the loo with a view! Ideal for a romantic break and highly recommended. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!”
