About Us


More than 15 years in the business

Here at The Really Interesting Tent Company, we understand that our clients want a top quality product that will withstand everything the British climate can throw at it, year after year.

We also know that customers want a one-stop supplier that can build a base, install a wood burner, service and support their yurt for many years to come.

Whether you’re a business, a public sector organisation, a charity or an individual, whether you’re looking to buy one small yurt or a number of super-sized yurts, contact our friendly team and we’ll be happy to discuss your needs and advise on how we can help you

We love building yurts!

The Really Interesting Tent Company has been producing top quality yurts since 2004. In 2017, the Devon-based owner retired and passed the business into the very capable hands of Rob and Di Miller, who are based in East Yorkshire.

Rob explained: “Back in 2016 my wife and I started looking to acquire or establish a business that we could really enjoy working on together. In searching businesses for sale I came across The Really Interesting Tent Company and after viewing and various discussions, we were very happy to officially take it over in June 2017.

"We keep the sales proposition nice and simple, we offer one inclusive price for the whole package."

All-inclusive package

Rob said: “We keep the sales proposition nice and simple, so instead of a customer paying for a yurt then calculating an additional cost for delivery, and facing another extra cost for installation, we offer one inclusive price for the whole package.

“People are investing a lot of money in this product, it’s important to us that we foster a one-to-one personal relationship with them that extends across its lifetime. This includes an ongoing support service, such as dismantling the yurt and storing it on the client’s behalf over winter if required, carrying out maintenance and oiling of the frame then redelivering and erecting it the following spring.

“We specialise in tailoring our service to each client’s needs, we want them to be happy with their yurt for years to come, not just when it’s first installed.”
Catering for all customers

The Really Interesting Tent Company’s customers vary in both their geographical location and the nature of their needs. Rob and his team work with clients across the length and breadth of the UK, including schools (particularly through the Forest Schools outdoor learning scheme); the RSPB; the Forestry Commission; glamping sites and event companies, as well as individuals.

“Whether you want to buy one small yurt for your children to play in in your garden or a large one to use as accommodation, just give us a call and we’d be more than happy to talk about how we can help you,” Rob added.

Even during the build process I was able to make some amends to the design to ensure it met our requirements.

We absolutely love it. A lot of thought went into the sighting as well. Rob even came down for the Yurt opening!
