inside the yurt

Inside the yurt you will find an airy and spacious environment. Furniture includes a low double bed, ample shelving with hanging space for shirts and jackets, a wooden breakfast table with chairs and a large bean bag sofa. To keep warm you will find a large wood burner at the back of the yurt, although this is generally not needed in the summer months. As we are not connected to the 'grid' our power comes from the sun and two 20w halogen spotlights provide plenty of light,a 12v cigarette socket is also available for charging mobile phones and laptops. (please bring a 12v cigarette socket adapter if you would like to use this facility)

outside the yurt

As you go outside the yurt you will step onto a large wooden veranda overlooking the lake. You may wish to take a moment to stop and enjoy the view, listen to the sounds of the eagles circling nearby or if your very lucky you may even glimpse a reclusive boar taking a dip in the lake to cool down! On the veranda you will find a table and chairs with a large sun shade umbrella, essential in the hot summer months! You may have your meals served here or inside the yurt as you wish.

The yurt is set in almost 2 acres of terraced land accessed by a good dirt road suitable for any car with parking for one or two vehicles.
The yurt sits at the bottom of this terraced valley less than 5 meters from the lake! To the rear of the yurt you will find a small natural waterfall with a hammock nestled between two olive trees.To the left of the yurt stone steps lead up to the next terrace where the compost toilet is situated with a great view of the lake! To the right of the yurt stone steps lead up to the Solar Shower located towards the end of the terrace. A gravel path leads up to the road from this terrace.

amenities

All amenities here at Lakeview Yurt Retreat have been designed to minimize environmental impact. We use solar power for all our electricity needs and have a unique compost toilet with an amazing view over the lake. Opposite the compost toilet, on our sunniest terrace, you will find the solar hot water shower. The shower will provide enough hot water for 2 people for about 10 minutes each, however the temperature of the water in the solar shower is of course dependant on the sun.
