Wigwams and things called Yurts

I stumbled across a website yesterday of a farm in the Limousin offering wigwam and yurt holidays in the Limousin. It seems a yurt is a round tent of asian origin. From a family holiday point of view it looks like a lot of fun. If it wasn't so close I think I would try a holiday there.

Regards

Yurts are Mongol tents and rather cute.  The daughter of a friend has one in the Pyrenees (65) and lives in it all year round.  She has a wood burning stove to heat it in the winter and its really cosy.  The sheep wool lining makes it smell a bit but after a while I guess you get used to it.

Not for me, though - no hot and cold running water and windows facing the sea[;-)]
