Had a lovely 2 day stay at Waveney River Centre in the yurts. The good: yurts come well equipped with a bed (bring your own bedding), a sofa bed (that converts to 2 singles), 2 bedside tables, 2 lamps, a small chest of drawers, coatrack, small bin, a radiator, and a lovely log fire. The yurt itself is also insulated, and between this, the fire, and the radiator, there’s no worry at all about being too cold inside. There’s also a picnic table and bench on the decking outside. Some fabulous views of the river, also a swimming pool (we didn’t use it so can’t comment on it), and kayaks/canoes for rent at very reasonable prices. Another bonus is that the Waveney Inn will deliver hot restaurant food directly to your yurt for no extra cost! The bad: when we arrived the double bed was broken - when my partner knelt on the bed to put the sheet on, the bed collapsed beneath him. The team was fantastic though, offering to either swap the bed or let us swap yurts (we opted for just a bed swap), which they then did within 10 minutes. The only other real downside is that because the walls of the yurts aren’t secured to the floor, we did have an issue with lots of spiders getting in to seek warmth and shelter from the rain, and some of them were quite large. This isn’t unexpected with the camping experience of course, but it’s something to bear in mind if you’re an arachnophobe. The gap between the bottom of the walls and the floor also meant that a strong breeze may bother anyone sleeping on the bottom of the convertible sofa bed (as the mattress is basically on the floor). We were a family group who collectively stayed in 5 of the 7 yurts, and one issue that only affected one yurt was leaking from the heavy rain, which started as a small leak but grew to be a bit more of a substantial issue as it was directly above the sofa bed. But again, the team was fantastic, offering to let them move to another yurt or one of the wooden escape pods. Overall the experience was a pleasant one, would definitely consider coming again and maybe staying in one of the (hopefully spider-free!) lodges.
