We have a 40m2 yurt, new in 2018. We also have a dinng room of around 30m2 and an enclosable outside terrace of about the same area. The yurt has been very popular and is accessed by walking a short path through the woods. A feeling of there being a "work " area and a "relax" area can be created. The terrace has water flowing beneath it as it is above the channel bringing water to the mill.
Eco practices
