Lakeview Yurt, Dacha, Ashton Road, Beckford, Worcestershire, GL20 7AU

Stayed here for a week, to try glamping. It's still camping! Setting unique, so peaceful and secluded. Surrounding area fabulous. When yurt was new it would have been spectacular, but aside from creepy crawlies (it's on a lake, in a forest, so we expected those!), there were other areas which let it down. Spot cleaning excellent, lovely clean bedding and towels, loads of hot water. But place looks tired and run down, chipped paint on radiator, plus lots of dust, a patch of mushrooms growing inside yurt, dusty drawers under bed (only clothes storage area so we lived out of our suitcase), bathroom damp with lots of mouldy paint around skirting. Kitchen sink sealant peeling, a dead woodlouse in bathroom cabinet which was noted on a review last month, alongside an empty can, so this has not been cleaned for some time. Small details, easily rectified which have been overlooked and which spoilt it for me. With a little more care and attention thus could be a wonderful place again. Sykes have chosen not to publish my review to date which was similar to this, and I have tried unsuccessfully to contact them. I believe it to be a fair assessment, I am fussy about details!

Decided to do something a little different for our anniversary this year. And so glad we did what a great getaway very secluded and private our yurt was clean and tidy. A large comfortable bed large bath tub and a well stocked kitchen. The under floor heating was Brilliant. The hot tub was beautifully hot and after a day out walking we chilled in it. The sauna was a great way to relax aching muscles. Even in December the yurt was in a sheltered area that meant we spent time outside having bbqs feeding swans ducks and geese. The owners we met at the start were very helpful and showed us around and how to work things. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants a getaway to relax. Some beautiful walks and places to visit

The pictures do not do this place justice! I have never stayed in a yurt before, but I?m already looking into visiting more yurts! Clean, well presented and all the amenities you would need. Comfortable bed and a very cute touch with a pull down screen and projector with a wide range of dvds to chose from, perfect to watch in the evenings with the door open feeling the fresh air. The hot tub made the evenings perfect for when the outside temperature would drop, to sit in there with a glass of wine and watch the ducks on the lake. The lake itself made our experience. Quiet and calm lake with all different ducks, swans, geese etc. rowing around the lake was not only fun but so romantic. We took a stroll into the village and it is so clean and so quiet, the pub was lovely and welcoming and serves good quality food. I really do recommend this place I would love to return and spend a week instead of a couple days! So much to explore and see. Me and my partner had the best time what a lovely tranquil setting.... thankyou!

Our second visit ididnt thinking could be beaten but I was wrong it was even better the weather helped it was hot all week but the peace and quite it was fantastic fishing was good went out in the boat every day it was what dreams are made of we will be back

There is only one word for this place and that is AMAZING :) booked this for my fiance's birthday we did not know what to expect as we have never stayed in a yurt before, but omg was we blown away!! From the yurt to the surrounding area and the wildlife, it's just the most perfect place for you to relax, unwind and recharge your battery's. My fiance was in his element, fishing and out on the private boat, also the private hot tub and sauna make it that extra special, the underfloor heating made the yurt so warm and cosy and had the most comfortable bed, we enjoyed our 3 night stay here and will definitely be back:)

Myself and my girlfriend booked Lakeview-Yurt and oh my what a absolute pleasure I highly recommend this Yurt... The hot tub is so nice,, the sauna is a great temperature and we burnt the chimenia all weekend... The Beckford Inn is superb for food.... The projector is a nice touch as is the bath next to the bed.....

Myself and my wife of 2 days decided to spend our 'Mini moon' at the yurt and absolutely loved it! Hidden away and perfectly secluded it gave us exactly what we were looking for after a busy couple of months leading up to the wedding.

Admittedly from the outside when you arrive (and we arrived in pouring rain) you could be a little put off but once you step through the door you couldn't be in a more welcoming and homely place. Everything inside was clean and modern and the underfloor heating and stove were added bonuses.

Even during a fairly miserable week

This is the last night of our 3 night stay. We have been blown away, the yurt and location is perfect. We met the owner who was very friendly, we followed him to the yurt and he showed us around, an indoor toilet has been added 2 weeks ago which is good, there is also a new Japanese BBQ which we used a lot. We cannot fault anything, the bed is most comfortable we have ever slept in and the bath is gorgeous. The local pub The Beckford Inn does amazing food. Sitting out on the decking overlooking the lake with a glass of wine and the chimenea burning has been
