About Yurts – Handcrafted UK Yurts for Sale and Hire

For centuries, nomads across the vast grasslands of Central Asia—from Turkey to Mongolia and China—have lived in traditional yurts. Historically, a yurt was built using locally sourced timber, covered in felted sheepswool, and often beautifully decorated. These portable structures housed entire families and were moved according to the grazing needs of the family’s livestock herd.

Traditional Yurt Design

Central Asian yurts vary in shape, size, and decoration, but their fundamental design remains the same: a central crown is supported by multiple rafters resting on a folding trellis wall, with the roof’s weight held in place by a taut tension band attached to the wooden doorframe.

Our UK Yurts

As contemporary UK yurt makers, we honour the craftsmanship of Central Asia while adapting the design for modern use in the UK climate. Our handcrafted yurts feature high curved rafters, a domed roof, and an elegantly steam-bent crown. While inspired by Turkmen and Kazakh yurts, our yurts are built using appropriate UK materials and modern technology to ensure durability, comfort, and style.

Wedding and Festival Yurts

We specialise in creating and renting spectacular double-height festival-style wedding yurts and have built giant yurts for other wedding yurt hire companies. Our expertise covers yurts for hire for weddings, festivals, corporate events, and private celebrations throughout Shropshire, the Midlands, and across the UK.
