If you or we have to cancel your booking due to government restrictions relating to Covid, you will receive a full refund - or you may decide to choose alternative dates. Discover the spirit of nomadic living with a stay at Sycamore; one of 12 luxurious, spacious Mongolian-inspired Yurts nestled in 62 acres of historic Estate at the Fir Hill Real Glamping hideout. Overlooking the stunning Porth Reservoir and Cornish countryside, the glamping site is less than five kilometres from the beautiful sand and surfer friendly beaches of Newquay on the north coast of Cornwall. This eco-friendly estate is unique in that it is self-sustaining and totally off-grid. Perfect for lovers of the great outdoors it provides an unforgettable Yurtist experience away from the pressures of 21st century living. All the lights, WiFi, showers are run from sunlight and logs! Communal facilities are centred around a couple of brand new barns, built on the site of the estate’s old cow shed, with a warm social space (and views of the Porth Reservoir), as well as modern toilets and shower rooms. An outdoor terrace, meanwhile, offers a south-facing space for soaking up the sun with a covered barbecue area alongside. The prime location combined with the luxuriousness of the Yurts themselves gives Fir Hill an obvious appeal. But much of the place’s charm is also owed to the ethos. Part glamping site and part restoration of an estate that was long overdue its time in the spotlight, the site has been painstakingly restored and renewed with the environment in mind. Water comes from a bore hole, huge solar panels cover part of the cowshed roof and a Froling turbo log boiler allows the site to run off thermal energy when the sun isn’t out. The owners have also planted over 200 fruit trees to restore the abandoned orchards. Sycamore is a tastefully decorated Yurt sleeping three. It is suitable for couples or a small family with a double bed and a single bed. The Yurt has its own kitchen shelter, outdoor seating terrace and firepit. We also have two further couples+ Yurts, each sleeping up to three, and there are nine larger family Yurts each sleeping six.
