The Yurt Retreat in Somerset has long been a haven for those seeking tranquillity, connection with nature, and unique accommodation. Nestled in the rolling hills of the West Country, this idyllic retreat continues to delight visitors with its commitment to sustainable, luxurious living. Now, it has taken another step forward by adding a brand-new Rotunda roundhouse to its collection of eco-friendly accommodations.

This latest addition is more than just a building—it’s a testament to how eco buildings can enhance both the environment and the guest experience.


The Perfect Match: Rotunda and The Yurt Retreat

The Yurt Retreat is renowned for its bespoke approach to glamping, blending traditional yurts with modern amenities. By incorporating Rotunda roundhouses, the retreat has expanded its offering while staying true to its eco-conscious ethos.

The roundhouse design complements the retreat’s natural setting perfectly, with its flowing circular structure harmonising seamlessly with the surrounding countryside. Built using sustainable materials and energy-efficient techniques, the Rotunda embodies the values that make the Yurt Retreat a standout destination for eco-conscious travellers.


What Makes the Rotunda Roundhouse Unique?

Eco-Friendly Design

The Rotunda roundhouse is an exemplary eco building, designed to have minimal environmental impact. Constructed from FSC-certified timber, it boasts excellent insulation, reducing energy usage while keeping the interior comfortable year-round.

Key eco-friendly features include:

  • Renewable materials.

  • Energy-efficient windows and insulation.

  • A design that blends naturally into the landscape.

Aesthetic Appeal

The circular design is not only practical but also deeply calming. The lack of sharp corners creates a welcoming and harmonious space, ideal for relaxation and mindfulness. For guests at the Yurt Retreat, the Rotunda offers a unique alternative to traditional yurts, with an added touch of modern luxury.


A Retreat Like No Other

The new Rotunda roundhouse adds even more variety to the Yurt Retreat’s offering, providing an option for guests who love the idea of a yurt but crave something sturdier and more spacious.

Guests can enjoy:

  • A spacious yet cosy interior, perfect for couples or solo travellers.

  • Panoramic views of the surrounding countryside through carefully positioned windows.

  • A seamless blend of indoor comfort and outdoor adventure.

Whether it’s a romantic getaway, a mindfulness retreat, or a simple escape from daily life, this roundhouse ensures a memorable experience.


Why Roundhouses Are Perfect for Retreats

Rotunda roundhouses are becoming increasingly popular in the hospitality industry, and for good reason:

  • Sustainability: Their eco-friendly design aligns perfectly with the growing demand for sustainable travel.

  • Unique Appeal: Their circular shape and calming interior make them stand out from conventional accommodations.

  • Versatility: Whether used as a retreat space, yoga studio, or luxurious accommodation, roundhouses are adaptable to a variety of purposes.

At the Yurt Retreat, the Rotunda roundhouse has proven to be the perfect addition, enhancing the experience for guests while preserving the beauty of the Somerset countryside.
