Frequently asked
questions
Q. What is a yurt?
A. It’s a large
circular tent on a wooden frame, originally used by Mongolian nomads.
Ours are a spacious 5metres in diameter. Apple tree yurt has a smaller
yurt attached for families or simply extra space.
Q. It’s camping
then?
A. In a way, though
ours is more like a hotel room in
style and
comfort. Think of it as glamorous camping – or “glamping”!
Q. Will I get cold and
wet?
A. No, it gets pretty
hot in central Portugal in summer.
In any case
there is a cosy bed and warm bedding if required, and the yurt is fully
waterproof.
Q. What if I need any
help or information?
A. We live within
walking distance – just come and find
us. We know the
surroundings well, and can recommend trips and activities. Also
information on local attractions is left in the yurt for you.
Q. Will I need a
car?
A. Yes, sorry public
transport is very limited in these
parts, and
you’ll need a car to see any of the surroundings. However we welcome
cyclists and motorcyclists.
