Come and unwind close to home!
A yurt is a tent with a collapsible wooden framework, covered in felt. It is the traditional habitat of many Central Asian nomads, particularly the Mongolians and the Turkmen. The Monglian yurt first appeared approximately 2,000 years ago and has substantially evolved over the centuries. They are most often seen in Kirghizstan, Kazakhstan or Uzbekistan and obviously in Mongolia. It is a family lodging, with one single room centred around a stove. There are several beds which serve as seats in daytime, wardrobes and/or chest of drawers, a coffee table where food is placed. The only opening is the front door, opposite which the head of the family's bed is traditionally located. It is easy to dismantle and to re-erect in a few hours. In Mongolia, more than a million people still live in yurts today. .
We like: Putting ourselves in the nomads' shoes and discovering this totally new type of unusual accommodation.

Hello, We are sorry that your stay at the Domaine did not meet your expectations. We are quite surprised by your comment regarding cleanliness, as the quality of our cleaning team's work is actually a strong point, regularly highlighted by our guests. The yurt is an unusual outdoor accommodation with a very distinctive character; perhaps its style did not appeal to you. Upon your departure, you mentioned "this lack of cleanliness" concerning the shared bathroom, not the yurt itself. As we explained to you, our team makes it a point of honor to rigorously maintain all areas of the Domaine. They even clean several times a day, including communal areas such as the shared bathroom. However, we obviously cannot clean right after every guest. We are sorry if you did not find the shared bathroom as you had hoped. This can be a drawback of shared facilities. Perhaps more comfortable accommodation with a private bathroom would have better met your expectations. EcÔtelia has the advantage of offering different types of accommodation with varying amenities to suit everyone's needs. Best wishes The EcÔtelia Team
