Cozy Yurt in the heart of Tyrone countryside.

The Yurt at Kerrib Farm is set in a peaceful, rural corner of County Tyrone, 15 minutes’ drive from the country town of Dungannon. They’re tucked away on a working farm where cattle and chickens are raised – you’re welcome to meet the cows; apparently, they all love snacking on slices of bread – and surrounded by a patchwork of fields.

The site may be basic in terms of facilities – but it makes a handy stopover to recharge and enjoy your next Irish adventure, and it’s certainly blessed in terms of natural beauty. Thanks to its countryside location, the farm is a peaceful haven for wildlife, with an abundance of small birds like robins, blue tits and goldfinches as well as buzzards, peregrine falcons and red kites. The fields are also home to a warren of rabbits and elusive small mammals including pine martens and hedgehogs.

While on-site, rise with the larks to witness spectacular sunrises, and on cloudless days watch out for colourful sunsets. The whole area also has minimal light pollution, so stargazing is a magical experience on clear nights – all this, and yet you’re only around 10 minutes’ drive from shopping and dining options in Pomeroy and Donaghmore.
