The Tipis

For 2009 the tipi site will consist of three 18ft brand new tipis, new log circles, fire-pits and interior rugs etc..

The tipis are of original Native American Sioux design with the Cheyenne smoke flap extensions or "ears" to vent the charcoal fires that are supplied with each tipi.

Each tipi is also fitted with an internal rain catcher when required.

What do you get?

For your stay in our tipis and included in our prices we supply you with a tipi with an inner liner which offers warmth and an air flow to assist the Fire Pit which is also included and can be used to cook on. We fit our tipis with a slightly suspended wooden floor which is and is covered with choir matting and then clean rugs for you to lounge on.

Outside there is also a log circle for you to sit around the fire. We also supply 1 bag of charcoal for the internal fire and a load of logs, enough for your first nights stay.

What do you need to Bring

Our tipis are not fitted with beds or other furniture in order to create a more spacious environment for your stay. The floor of the tipis is dry and covered with clean rugs.

For groups staying for a couple of nights we suggest you bring the equipment that you would if you were camping.

For families and smaller bookings we can arrange camp beds if requested in advance.

A toilet, shower and wash basin are available for your use.

More about the tipis.

Our authentic Sioux style tipis are made from 120z waterproof cotton canvas on a frame of locally sourced Larch poles.

The tipis offer a generous living area for you to enjoy. Tipis are filled with natural light during the day and the glow of the fire by night. On summers days you can roll back the door and admire the views from inside.
