My wife and I recently had the pleasure of visiting the beautiful Somerset countryside and stayed at Orchard View Yurt, part of the Walnut Barn Estate. This was a departure from our usual hotel or B&B experiences, but we were looking for something different for our 37th anniversary—and it did not disappoint!

From the moment we booked until the minute we left, the attention to detail was outstanding. Sandra, the reservations manager, went above and beyond to answer all our queries and made sure our stay was truly memorable. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Sandra at our private parking spot, and she transported our luggage in a golf buggy to the yurt, which is nestled in a peaceful corner of the estate's cider orchard. The view across the Mendip Hills was simply stunning.

The yurt itself was a real surprise—its interior was beautifully decorated, with fairy lights adorning the space and a glass chandelier as the centerpiece. We had requested a luxury hamper, and it was packed with delights: a chilled bottle of sparkling wine, cheeses, fruits, chocolates, olives, and antipasti. The yurt was fully equipped with everything we needed—a comfortable large bed, a small cooker, fridge, log burner, and an oil-filled radiator, which kept us cozy. There was also a smart TV and Wi-Fi, so we didn’t have to give up our little comforts!

Outside, the garden was equipped with sun loungers (not quite the weather for us this time!) and a fantastic hot tub, pre-heated to 40°C with powerful jets and a Bluetooth speaker for music. It was such a luxurious touch. The estate is just a 5-minute walk from a lovely village pub, "The Old Inn," and there’s a nearby Chinese takeaway if you fancy a night in.

Every person we met on-site was friendly, polite, and knowledgeable about the local area. We had an amazing time and will definitely be back—next time, we’re hoping to stay in their charming shepherd’s hut.

Thank you, Sandra and the team, for making our weekend so special!

We arrived and were greeted by Sharon who showed us around and took us to the yurt with our bags on the golf cart. The place is lovely and VERY cosy. Just what we needed for a few nights away to celebrate my partner's birthday. We've already spoke about booking up again.

Thank you for having us, and we shall see you again sometime!

This was our second stay in the yurt we stayed back in April and decided to go back at end of July as we had such a good experience even took the dog with us this time as very secure for the dog to run free in the garden.staff are very friendly and helpful the jacuzzi was great good cooking facilities only thing I would say was disappointed that the Netflix and I player wouldn't work as it rained one evening so was going to watch a film but hey had a great stay and would recommend it.

A unique property in a good proximity to services, beaches, shops but still set alone in the countryside.
Lovely friendly service before and during our stay. Everything you need is there- private enclosed garden so dogs are safe, hot tub, loungers, bbq
Uphill beach amazing- beautiful views, flat sands- just drive on at night with your fish and chips!
Lovely and peaceful and cosy- wish we had needed the log burner just to say we used it!
Bathroom right outside the tent door- no dramas of going outside in the dark!

Me and my partner stayed for two nights last weekend and it exceeded expectations!
So happy we found walnut barns estate
Sharon has been very helpful from the moment I booked, answering any questions I had by email and even making sure we bought our wellies
All the information and directions were clear and we had no problem finding our getaway
Sharon greeted us on arrival and helped transport our luggage to the yurt she showed us around and how things worked and made sure we had everything we needed
I ordered a luxury hamper with Prosecco and it was there ready when we arrived and was delicious
I left my speaker and Sharon contacted me to say they had found it and going to post it back to me
The location was perfect, the yurt was very clean and cozy and the hot tube was amazing
Thank you so much for everything and we will definitely be returning xxxxx

The yurt is a little gem! Everything you needed there and the hot tub is amazing. Sharon was our host when we got there and was very informative when showing us round and James was onsite if there were any problems. You are also just left alone to enjoy the surroundings which we preferred. The only problem I had was I wished we had booked to stay longer!

Booked for a little February getaway for me and my fiancé. We were smitten with the yurt after first seeing it online but it was so much better in person! Lovely friendly people there that went above and beyond to make our whole experience perfect! We enjoyed every part of our stay. Lovely food at he local pub. We didn't want to leave. I would recommend staying here to anyone. What a little piece of heaven! Would love to return. We have our eye on the shepards hut for our next stay. Thank you so much for having us!

Wonderful stay in the Yurt. Large and very comfortable, with a kitchen area and fridge, great for chilling our wine. Shower room attached. On a secluded/quiet area of the farm with its very own Private Hot Tub and garden. Totally relaxing feel.
Lovely Host couldn’t do enough for us and only a five minute walk to the nearest pub.
We will definitely return.

We stayed at walnut Barns for a 30th birthday for a long weekend in the The Old Diary, Cider Barn and Yurt. It was incredible, highly recommend! Sharon was a great welcome host and only a text away if we needed anything! We had a fantastic weekend, lots of bathrooms, very clean, great space and we will definitely be returning and recommending! Thank you very much to Sharon & the team for making a memorable birthday!
The Yurt particularly was beautiful with its own facilities, hot tub and area!

This place is unreal from the moment you get there. Met by Sharon who is just brill with lots of information and just a lovely welcome. Getting to the yurt from unloading the boot to our transfer by golf buggy took 2 mins. Then you get to the yurt and wow, the yurt the very private garden ,sun beds, bbq, and The hot tub for 2 just so peaceful, private and romantic. The yurt and shower room are spotless with everything you need.The owner of the farm and family members are also very welcoming. This 50 acre farm has it all for a lovely short break ( or longer if you fancy) 10 mins from Weston beach front by car or a closer beach (Uphill beach) which you can walk across to Weston main front from. We will return and have told everybody we know to visit.Would like to say thank you and congratulations on the whole area to date what a job. Visit, visit. Many Thanks Steve and Caroline

First and foremost I’d like to thank Sharon for her help. She was amazing. There were six of us in our family to from Mexico and 70 enjoyed the very English experience. We were booked into the year it changed to the shepherds hunt due to the fact that my cousin had a dog it was no problem whatsoever. The unit had plenty of room and we all marked in together we had an amazing couple of days. Can’t think you enough. The flexibility of the yet and the shepherds have helped us know end as we were all together. My cousin brought her camper van close to the yet so we were all one big happy family

Everything about a stay worked beautifully. However the in dunnction cooker in the ear it was quite difficult to understand maybe a written instruction sheet with our welcome pack might help.

We were a party of six cousins to all get together once every 10 years, we had an amazing time. The flexibility was superb. We enjoyed barbecue late nights together hot tub everything was just to hand. Recommendation for a meal at the old Inn did not materialize as we had so much fun ..

Just had a great overnight stay in the orchard view yurt. The location was great and set private surroundings. The accomodation is dog friendly with fully secure fencing. Full use of a private hot tub was available which was great for a relaxing and stress free stay. The staff were friendly and helpful and on hand should any problems arise, but our stay went smoothly and we had a great time. The yurt itself was fantastic, with pleasant decor and everything we needed for our short stay.
This was our first time glamping but will definitely be back and can recommend this property to anyone who is looking for something a little bit quirky.

We had such a lovely stay at Orchard View for our Anniversary. The yurt was great & had everything you could need. The hot tub was amazing, so relaxing. I loved sitting out in the garden, it was so pretty & private & safe for our dog. Lots of cute little touches in the yurt & garden that makes it extra special. Definitely recommend.
