Brickles Yurts – A Secluded Woodland Glamping Retreat
Sleeps 12 across 3 yurts
This exclusive and secluded glamping site sits on the edge of Brickles Wood, a peaceful 60-acre woodland that forms part of Hydes Farm.
The yurts face south-east, catching the morning sun and offering far-reaching views across the Blackmore Vale towards the chalk downs of Bulbarrow—an inspiring backdrop for relaxed mornings and nature-filled adventures. Enjoy a bbq with your loved ones, sit and relax by the campfire and star gaze into the night – maybe even spot a shooting star.
Brickles Wood is a sanctuary for wildlife, with mature oaks, hazel coppice, stands of pine and beech, and the occasional wild service tree shaping the landscape. This rich woodland habitat supports thriving birdlife and butterflies, and you may even spot barn owls or even a fox.
Perfect for groups, families, dog owners & even a hen party weekend Brickles is an unforgettable setting glamping escapes—private, peaceful and full of rustic charm. With space to celebrate, explore and unwind, it’s perfect for groups who want a relaxed, nature-rich alternative to a traditional hen weekend. Guests can enjoy long woodland walks, shared meals beneath the trees, evenings around the fire, and the simple joy of being tucked away together in a beautiful Dorset woodland. Whether you’re planning a chilled, connection-focused retreat or a fun, laughter-filled weekend, our Brickles site gives you the freedom and privacy to create a celebration that feels truly personal.
