We were disappointed when we turned up to find it is no longer the luxury Yurt that was advertised but is now musty and moldy on the roof. We’re hardened campers who also stay in yurts on a regular basis so we’re not wimps! The setting is lovely, peaceful and rural but the luxury description was what let it down. We would probably stay here again as we did have a lovely time but not with the luxury price we paid.

This is the 2nd time i've stayed and I look forward to a 3rd. Firepit, Gas stove,lanterns, hammock and a hot shower. I found everything needed to have a relaxing, convenient, yet detached and secluded stay. I've now visited in the sun and the rain and I enjoyed both times. If you need to get away from it all this is certainly the solution.

This was our third stay at the Yurt. It's a beautiful location, and easy to get to from Brighton. It's paceaful and the kids love to run around. Eastboane is close and it's a nice walk along Seven Sisters to Beachy Head. The Yurt we stayed in this time (there are two) is in a clearing in the woods and you can see the stars. There is a firepit and a tiolet and shower which are nicely done. Inside the Yurt is wonderful. It feels like checking into a hotel and there are there is a great attention to detail, both with the decoration and lot's of practial things that you might have forgot. We've had some fun time at the Yurt and will definately come again. Thanks!

We all had a lovely time (quality time). The tent/yurt is the real thing and it's so cozy with the wood burner on. Woods to explore, streams to muck about in, things to see, a good simple disconnect from routine. One of those "great experiences" in the family album. Elena was friendly and flexible. I think the world would be better place if more people did these sort of getaways.

Fantastic break away from the city. The yurt is tucked away in the woods. The log burner kept us nice and warm despite the weather. Waking up to the bird sings is a bliss! We had everything we needed and more. very happy to recommend!

I was very happy to book this, as it was a birthday present for my husband and it was something different, however on arrival I had mixed feelings about it. If you want to try this I advise to book it in the summer months, or when it’s dry, we got really unlucky with the weather because it was raining days before and during our stay which caused a lot, A LOT of dampness in the yurt. Now i’m not saying you should control the weather, but when a client is paying that much money (£220 for two nights for me is a lot of money) I think as the owner you should make sure that the accommodation is suitable for people to sleep in. This could have been done by setting up the fire place through the day so it dries the dampness out, and setting the bedsheets like an hour before we arrive. But it wasn’t. We arrived in the evening, had to stumble in the dark because the girl from the hotel didn’t really know where the yurt was because she’s never been there. We finally found it, there is no outside lighting at all, there are some solar lamps that do not work, so it’s a bit uncomfortable if you want to go out to the toilet in the middle of the night, torches are provided, but you don’t see anything beyond the torch light. The yurt itself is not as new as it looks in the pictures, the roof is quite dirty/mouldy from the dampness and from the trees, you could see the places where the water was gathering quite strongly, unfortunately that’s right where the head of the bed is, made me quite uneasy that at one point it will just start leaking or burst. The place definitely needs some TLC, i do have friends who would have probably turned around and left after they saw it. Also the owner didn’t message us once to see if we got in ok, if we needed anything etc., which made us feel that she didn’t really care. I’m sorry if for some people it seems that i’m asking for too much, but it is called a ‘luxury’ yurt retreat - there is nothing luxury about it. We couldn’t fall asleep for hours because of the damp bed sheets. Other then all these things, I can see the charm of the yurt, it’s a very rustic style and in the summer time it can be nice. The lanterns and tea lights are a very nice touch and the bed is comfortable. There’s a gas cooker that works well and everything you might need for tea/food making. The fire place heats up the place quite quickly but the warmth also disappears quickly once the fire stops. The yurt is close to nearby towns where there are a lot of nice places for breakfast and exploring. Eastbourne is really close which is also amazing. You definitely need a car though. I usually never write reviews but I felt that this needed to be shared. It’s definitely a nice place but it needs more attention and love, also better care of renters from the owner.

I've stayed here four times now, and can't recommend it highly. It's the kind of place that gives you that back to nature experience. The yurt is immersed just within some woodland and that feeling of immersion is really wonderful. It really changes your consciousness, slows you down, brings you back to a natural rhythm. If you're anything like me you'll really enjoy cooking with the camping stove, building your own fires in the wood burner or going for walks nearby to see the horses in the field. I plan to come back here regularly. It's just the perfect place to reset yourself. Highly recommended.

I couldn’t rate this place enough, the staff were so friendly and helpful, the yurt was so beautiful and comfy and had everything you could think of plus more. It is definitely somewhere I would visit again

A perfect stay in the woods. Yabada yurt has everything you need and is just beautiful. Dappled evening light, glowing log burner and even a hammock. No need to bring cooking equipment, kindling, torches or candles, it’s literally all here except for your towels. Thoroughly recommend and would love to stay in the snow. Thank you!

Birdsong,candles,fire,relaxation, woodland..birds nest in the shower 😍 your attention to detail in the yurt makes it a beautiful space,perfect for after our wedding- thankyou 💖
