Staying cosy in a Tipi or Yurt in the UK generally requires a heat source. Tipis are designed to have an open fire in the centre whilst a Yurt works better with a Wood-stove. Yurts are the best for being warm all year round as they can have an extra layer of insulating felt.
Hearthworks Felt Insulation Covers – Year-Round Comfort for Your Yurt
To enjoy all-season Yurt living, consider adding a Felt Insulation Cover. Designed to provide warmth and comfort, these covers create an effective layer of insulation, keeping the cold out and retaining heat inside. This makes your Yurt snug and cosy, even in the coldest months.
Sustainable and Durable
Our Felt Insulation Covers are made from 100% recycled felted wool, stitched onto a canvas backing. We strongly recommend choosing natural white for the canvas backing, as it brightens the inside of your Yurt, creating a lighter, more inviting space. The cover consists of separate roof and wall sections, which are installed over the Yurt frame beneath the outer canvas. This layered insulation system ensures excellent thermal retention, making your Yurt warm and comfortable, especially when combined with a wood-burning stove.
Tailored to Your Needs
If you choose to add a window to your Yurt, we can provide an insulated curtain to keep you snug when needed, offering the flexibility to enjoy natural light without sacrificing warmth.

Wood-burning Stoves
We offer a range of professional wood-burning stoves from our chosen suppliers. Although generally Stoves are fitted in Yurts, we have also fitted Stoves in Tipis for a number of clients over the years.
When we choose our recommended suppliers we look for the best Stoves we have come across in the UK in terms of performance, longevity and usability. The type of Stove required may depend on a range of factors including legal regulations governing which Stoves can be used in certain environments, or the type of fuel that is permitted. We recognise that a quality wood-burning stove is a lifetime investment.
We also offer CE certified Stoves from other suppliers, please enquire for details.
For safety, our stoves are installed with a heatproof silicone flashing that’s set into stainless steel plates to keep the flue stable and secure. We recommend the use of double-skinned flue from the point where the flue exits the Yurt through the flashing. This ensures there is no risk of the canvas near the flue ever overheating and burning, and helps the stove’s functioning because it keeps the temperature within the external part of the flue more regular, so the stove draws better.
Firedishes
The Firedish contains the open fire inside a steel
dish raised up off the ground. The simple and highly practical Firedishes we use are suitable for use outside as well as inside our Tipis. They are handmade locally to an extremely high standard using quality steel and have detachable legs for ease of transportation. The Firedishes come in two sizes, a 20” size and 24” wide size recommended for our larger Tipis.
