Yurts

While cycling in the USA last year I noticed that in many of the State Parks they have Yurts which are a round semi-permanent structure that uses insulated canvas around a wooden frame with a domed roof above it all. There are also Yurts to be found in Central Asia.

The reason I mention these is they are perfect in my view because they are not like the home away from home palaces that New Zealanders tend to build at the beach. They are better than a tent but do not take up a lot of real estate and can be relocated at minimal expense.

 They would be a welcome addition to our holiday accommodation especially for cyclists.
