You don’t have to choose between ancient and comfortable.

In the early years, a sheepskin on the floor was the bed.

These days, our festival Tipi’s and Yurts have individual electric sockets and proper mattresses with raised beds. All are fully weather proof, with specially designed rain catchers, and can stand any weather the English summer brings, keeping you and all your festival kit, dry and warm.

The structures themselves haven’t changed - same hazel poles, hand-stitched canvas made in our Somerset workshop - but we’re always upping our game to make the experience more comfortable and stress-free.

There’s a nine-acre estate of ancient woodland, orchards and sub-tropical garden above the river estuary where Cornwall meets Devon. The Times once called it the most romantic garden in the county.

House of Hackney live there now, in the castle above it, custodians of a site that’s been continuously occupied for nearly a thousand years.

This June they’re hosting a small festival in the grounds. Three hundred people, four days. An intimate gathering they’re calling .

They asked us to build the yurt field. Every penny of profit goes to nature restoration. It felt like an easy yes.

Solstice is the natural time for a gathering like this.

The longest day, the shortest night.

A few of our classic yurts still bookable through the festival. They hold 2, 4 or 6. 19–22 June.

You can’t really separate the structures from the people who make them . The crew who started with me in their twenties are in their forties now. Some of their kids are on the team. If you stay in one of our tipis this summer, the person who made it is probably on the same field.

The longest day of the year. The shortest night.

Solstice at is one of those very special events that does exactly what it says connecting us all. Fireside music, ceremony, singing together, dawn.

Hearthworks accommodation includes tipis and yurts, proper beds, electric power. Groups of two, four, or six. Everything set up when you arrive.

If you want somewhere connected for the solstice, this is it.

Poles, canvas, rope. Built by hand in Somerset, put up in fields across the country. It looks complicated until you’ve done it a few hundred times.

The crew makes it look like nothing. By Friday there’s a village where there was a field. A hundred tipis standing in a row and nobody thinks twice about how they got there. Then someone lights a fire and the whole place comes alive.

We’ve been doing this for twenty-five years and it still feels like the best job in the world.

With great thanks to talented Siri’s Hraiz for capturing our day together.

Same shape humans have been building for thousands of years.

Poles leaned together, canvas wrapped around, smoke hole at the top. The design hasn’t changed because it doesn’t need to.

This one’s 25 feet across. Went up in a private garden in . A beautiful stone and glass house on the hill above it.

Everything about that house is new.
Everything about the tipi is ancient.

They’re both shelter and side by side they make more sense than they should.

Worth every one of the 500 miles Hearthworks founder, Tara, drove to Northern Ireland last week to install this ceremonial Tipi.

Sheepskins on the floor. Lanterns lit. The festival is a five-minute walk through the trees, but in here it’s quiet.

Medicine Festival is one of those places that changes pace the moment you arrive. Our handcrafted yurts and tipis are dressed with textiles, cushions, and proper bedding. You sleep on a real bed. You wake up to birdsong and canvas light.

We’ve been building these structures by hand in Somerset for 25 years. Every frame, every stitch, every rope knot. The same team that runs the Glastonbury Tipi Field.

A few spaces still available from £28 per person per night - boutique, fully dressed accommodation shared between 6, across 5 nights.

Tara has been building Tipis and Yurts since the late nineties. Decades on, he still loads vans, solves problems in muddy fields and helps raise the structures himself.

Osh runs the woodwork shop. His father is a wood craftsman too. He can tell you the moisture content of a piece of timber from the sound it makes.

Nichole has been the hub of the Hearthworks office for twenty years, often with the workshop cat on her desk. Her late partner Mick was Hearthworks’ main Yurt frame maker for many years.

Ruby is second-generation Hearthworks crew. Her father, Will, was one of the original Tipi and Yurt makers twenty-five years ago. She brings warmth, resilience and a sense of humour to even the hardest site days.

Tarim grew up around Tipis and Yurts and has worked with Hearthworks for more than twelve years.

Ruby, Bilal and Tarim are some of the crew who arrive on site before dawn and leave after everyone else has gone home.

They’re the reason your Tipi is standing when you arrive and the reason it’s still standing when you leave.
