Hire a Yurt in the UK

Your vision for your event is what matters most. The ability to build an entire village of structures is the ultimate in customisation. Our suppliers excel at tailoring their services to your specific needs, ensuring the final result is a personal experience that perfectly matches your vision.

Finding Your Patch: Securing the Right Spot in the UK

So, you’ve decided a yurt is for you. The next, and arguably most important, step is to find the land. Unlike a fixed venue, you need a patch of ground to call your own for a few days. The golden rule? Always, always get full permission from the landowner before you book a single thing.

Here are the most common places to pitch a yurt in the UK:

• Farms and Fields with Access: This is the classic option. Many farmers and landowners are happy to rent out a field for a weekend. The key things to check for are practicality. Is there a water supply? Is there access to electricity, or will you need to hire a generator? Crucially, is the vehicle access good enough for supplier vans and guest cars, even if it rains?
• Festival and Campsites: Established sites can be a great choice as they often have the essential infrastructure already in place—toilets, showers, power hook-ups, and hard-standing access roads. You'll need to check their private hire policies, but it can save you a lot of logistical headaches.

Once you have your land sorted, the fun part begins. But pulling together all the different suppliers can feel like a full-time job. That's why we created Poptop. You can save the time and effort of searching multiple websites by discovering everything you need in one convenient place. From the yurts themselves to the mobile bars and caterers to serve your guests, it’s all here.

Setting the Scene: Creative Yurt Themes for Any Occasion

With your yurt in place, you can create a whole new world inside. The beautiful wooden frame is a stunning feature on its own, but a strong theme can elevate the experience to another level.

• Festival Village Embrace the festival spirit with a riot of colour and energy. Styling: Think colourful bunting, festival flags, rustic signposts, and multiple "zones." Atmosphere: A crackling central fire pit is essential. Use festoon lighting between yurts and have different food and drink stations to encourage guests to explore.

• Stargazer Lounge Many yurts have a clear cap at the very top, known as the crown. Make this the star of the show. Styling: Use dark, rich fabrics like deep blues and purples. Fill the space with comfy beanbags, floor cushions, and low tables. Details: Place a few telescopes just outside for keen astronomers. Inside, use subtle uplighters and project a starfield onto the canvas ceiling for a truly magical effect.

• Moroccan Chill-out A timeless theme that instantly creates a relaxed and exotic atmosphere. Styling: Use low-level seating, Moroccan pouffes, and an abundance of rich, patterned rugs and cushions. Lighting: The key here is lanterns. Hang them from the frame and place them on tables to create a warm, intimate, and flickering glow. Serve mint tea in traditional glasses to complete the look.

You get more than just a structure; you get an experience. We choose our suppliers for their professionalism and their passion. They love bringing creative ideas to life and will work with you to create a warm and engaging atmosphere that your guests will adore.

A Guide to Yurt Hire Costs in the UK

The cost of hiring a yurt varies depending on size, specification, and location. As a general guide for a single yurt, you can expect a starting price in the range of £600 to £2,500+.

It’s important to note that this often refers to one yurt, and the final cost will depend on many factors:

• Size and Type: A giant yurt for 150 guests will cost significantly more than a small, two-person sleeping yurt.
• Number of Yurts: If you’re creating a glamping village, the cost will be calculated based on the number and size of the yurts you hire.
• Furnishings: The price will differ depending on whether you hire an empty shell or a fully furnished yurt with beds, flooring, lighting, and heating.
• Duration of Hire: A standard weekend hire is most common, but longer periods can be arranged.
• Delivery: The distance from the supplier’s base to your location anywhere in the UK will be factored into the final price.
