From the balcony, you look out on the sweeping panorama of a lush Welsh valley as you sip your morning coffee. In the Den, the space underneath, you’ll find your hammock and outside seating area, as well as an electric hot tub, for a dip under the fairy lights when the sun goes down. Inside you’ll find a dining table to serve feasts to all seven guests, a reading nook for quiet lazy afternoons, or the bean bags and swinging sofa for when the hour is late, the air is cool and you’re nowhere near ready for bed. Those lucky enough to be staying in the master bedroom have a floor to ceiling window, overlooking both the balcony and the same incredible view. If you’re slow to rise, you might wake to your other guests already draping themselves over the sun loungers on the balcony below to enjoy the morning rays.
From the pictures, it’s clear how much there is to do at the space, but harder to spot the little features that make it so easy to relax in, like motorised blinds, Bluetooth speakers or underfloor heating – but trust us, they’re there. Cnocell y Coed is midway between the Shropshire Hills AONB, and the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park – with about a half hour’s drive to either. Even a trip to the west coast is only an hour’s drive through scenic valleys and patchwork fields. Nearby, Wales shows off its foodie vibes with a range of world foods, vege and vegan menus and of course, pub classics. Pick a direction and you’ll find something incredible, but at Cnocell y Coed – you’re already somewhere incredible.

Meet your hosts
Meet Lyndon and Emma
Lyndon, Emma and their family are proud of their heritage and connection to the land in Radnorshire, Wales. For over a century, the family have been raising sheep and cattle on their farm known locally as "The Rhiw". The treehouses offer breathtaking views of the surrounding hills, valleys and river, but it's not just about the scenery. Lyndon and Emma take pride in sharing their local history, language and mythical stories with their guests. They want visitors to truly immerse themselves in the culture and beauty of the area, and learn about the traditions, customs and language that have been passed down through generations.
Wildlife & Environment
The family has managed the land with exquisite care, planting oak saplings and building natural bug hotels, among much other work. In May, breathtaking carpets of bluebells cover the forest floor.
A huge variety of insects and invertebrates call the place home, which in turns means a flourishing ecosystem that draws deer, squirrels and birdlife. The area around the Wood is heaven for birdwatchers, with a variety of species to observe, including buzzards, red kites, woodpeckers, plus barn owls to listen out for.
From the balcony, you look out on the sweeping panorama of a lush Welsh valley as you sip your morning coffee.

I’d consider myself a well seasoned traveller but I’ve never stayed somewhere like this before. It manages to tick every box by being exquisitely designed with every detail and yet is homely, comfortable and super relaxing. The photos were impressive but the views in reality were breathtaking

We have stayed five places from canopy & stars website and this is the best place ever! The view is amazing! The layout of the house is so beautiful! Loved all the modern facilities in the house! The place is extremely clean! Jacuzzi was a very relaxing place to be in on cold winter days. The host Emma was extremely helpful and thoughtful! Emma was able to accommodate us with additional request such as BBQ equipment. She also kindly prepared my little one a birthday welcome decoration also his birthday present! The whole experience was beyond our expectation! This is the best treehouse experience and we had an amazing family time together! Thank you so much, Emma, for everything you did!

My family and I had such a wonderful stay. The place had everything you could ever need and was beautiful decorated giving such a cosy feel. As the place was so lovely we didn’t want to leave and would rush back from our outings looking forward to all the house had to offer. The view outside the balcony of the land was also breathtaking.

Myself and 4 close friends stayed in Cnocell y Coed in late October. We had an amazing time and were very impressed by the lodge. The balcony offered fantastic views of the welsh countryside, as well as the chance to spot some of the local wild life.
The surrounding area offered interesting walks with spectacular views. I would highly recommend getting up early at least one of the mornings of your stay and heading up to Giants Grave for some breath taking views of the low clouds rolling through the valley.

The weather was surprisingly good, the place was really comfortable with a great view and Emma was super helpful and friendly. The area (about which I knew zero beforehand) was a real eye opener

The accommodation was superb, really good quality and the setting was stunning. The hosts (Emma and Lyndon) were super accommodating and friendly and they really cared us having a good break. The fossil hunting was a real highlight, our children loved exploring the quarry! The fire pit area was also really good to have so we can easily cook and eat outside.

Gary
Myself, partner and son had an absolutely beautiful stay here.We loved everything about it. The beds were so comfortable we all had a great nights sleep. The place has everything you need, good WiFi, fantastic hot tub area over looking the outdoors.
Bluetooth mirror in the bathroom was a lovely touch.
It was nice to be able to charge our car up outside the property. Our 11 year old would get up each morning to sit outside on the balcony without waking us to watch the sheep and cows. Not far from the local town.
Emma was there to greet and say goodbye, she was very nice.
We would 100% recommend, and we would definitely return.

An amazing stay at an incredible location! Perfect from start to end, a wonderful property, with amazing views, lots of space and a large hot tub for taking it all in. A fantastic host too, who helped us plan some of our days out, so lots to do and see in mid Wales. I can’t recommend this house highly enough. We’ll definitely be heading back for more. Thanks again.

Amazing stay. Emma was a very helpful and welcoming host, and the house was very cosy, comfortable and stylish.

Perfect little break away. Great use of facilities every little detail thought of. Owners were so friendly and helpful with ideas for additional activities and attractions near the treehouse.
Immaculate treehouse with gorgeous views. Didnt want to leave. Being near the sheep, cows and the birds really brought you into the nature aspect really escaping from reality. Absolutely loved the hot tub watching the sunset and the sound of the sheep could never get bored. Great section of games and colouring books/ canvas drawing even the option of yoga which was excellent. Outdoor bbq was ideal a great touch of extra facilities. Beds and pillows are super comfy. My favourite part about staying at Cnocell y Coed is the swing chair in the front room so different from other treehouse/ cabins such a great spin on the visual of the living space still with the option of a sofa but you can choose the swing if you wish to enjoy a book or want to relax without being in front of the TV. Black out blinds was a great touch especially when you are used to black out curtains so really made it home from home. Everything you need is already within Cnocell y Coed you just need to bring food,drink and you.

What an amazing place! We arrived in the rain but were met almost immediately by Emma the owner, who showed us round pointed everything out to us explained all the facilities and opened up the fabulous Hot Tub !

The treehouses were perfect and could not be better. I've paid twice as much for similar accommodation. Emma is a lovely host, nothing was too much trouble. I've recommended these cabins to everyone I've spoken to and would book again when we need some R&R. Thanks again!

We had a really lovely stay for my wife’s birthday. It’s such a beautiful space with amazing views and we were so welcomed by our host by who laid out special extras as arranged for my wife’s birthday and invited us to see the fresh baby calf at the farm, she also gave us many recommendations for lots of things to do during our stay which were much appreciated. The cabin was really well thought out, aswell as being well equipped even with lots of children’s toys for our 2 year old. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely stay again.

Harry
We had a wonderful stay at the Cnocell y Coed treehouse which was stunning inside and out - fantastic amenities, luxurious, spotlessly clean and with very comfortable beds! The view was breathtaking, even from the hot tub - such a lovely way to wind down as a family, even on rainy days.
Emma was an incredible host, responding immediately to all messages and questions both in the run up to and during our stay. She had provided lots of essentials for the stay and went the extra mile a few times such as providing a Valentine’s Day craft project for the kids to do on a rainy day, as well as providing a bubbly treat for the adults!
To top it off, having access to their quarry for fossil hunting was an exciting bonus, we found so many fossils!
We’ll certainly be coming back!

We had such a relaxed time at Cnocell y Coed, the house was beautiful with the smallest of details from the perfectly placed bird feeder outside the kitchen window to watch the finches in the morning to the automatic curtain opener so there was no need to get out of bed before seeing the gorgeous view across the rolling hills. Everything was of high quality, the hot tub was amazing and we were lucky enough to be in it while watching the owl at dusk. There were places to visit a drive away but we spent one full day around the house, building fires to cook sausages and marshmallows on and whittling, my teenage boys flew their drones and were able to use their remote control cars while we read and explored our surroundings on foot. At night the stars were amazing I've never seen anything like it. Emma was a fantastic host and available for any questions and recommendations; Elan Dam and ice cream at Llanfaes Dairy ice cream in Brecon were a hit even in February. Cnocell y Coed was truly a great escape to the country and one the whole family would recommend or as an adult get away.

Myself, my partner and friends stayed at Rhiw wood over new year. We couldn’t have enjoyed the stay more. Everything was perfect. The treehouse is done to a high standard and Emma has thought about literally everything you might need while you’re there. The views are unreal, and the location itself is great as it’s not too far away from places to walk and go eat.
Emma was really attentive during our stay and is so friendly. Couldn’t fault anything and will definitely be back! Thank you!

Laura
We stayed at Cnocell y Coed for four nights in autumn. The treehouse is absolutely stunning! The views out of the huge windows are breathtaking! Every morning we didn't know what we would wake up to, because it looked different every day. We got to watch red kites soaring in the skies all day long. The view from the hot tub is also incredible.
Our stay was incredibly peaceful. The area is quiet and perfect for a relaxing getaway. Emma was a great host, friendly and always on hand if you have questions or want recommendations for a day out. Couldn't recommend it more!

The perfect place to make wonderful memories. The Wood really is magical with so much wildlife and beauty and the treehouse does a fantastic job at reflecting this. We had a wonderful meal outside in the deck area before settling into the hot tub to catch the sunset. The treehouse was clean, spacious with plenty to do and gave lots of inspiration to get out to explore. we came back fresh and already planning my return!

Perfect little break away. Great use of facilities every little detail thought of. Owners were so friendly and helpful with ideas for additional activities and attractions near the treehouse.
Immaculate treehouse with gorgeous views. Didnt want to leave. Being near the sheep, cows and the birds really brought you into the nature aspect really escaping from reality. Absolutely loved the hot tub watching the sunset and the sound of the sheep could never get bored. Great section of games and colouring books/ canvas drawing even the option of yoga which was excellent. Outdoor bbq was ideal a great touch of extra facilities. Beds and pillows are super comfy. My favourite part about staying at Cnocell y Coed is the swing chair in the front room so different from other treehouse/ cabins such a great spin on the visual of the living space still with the option of a sofa but you can choose the swing if you wish to enjoy a book or want to relax without being in front of the TV. Black out blinds was a great touch especially when you are used to black out curtains so really made it home from home. Everything you need is already within Cnocell y Coed you just need to bring food,drink and you.

The treehouses were perfect and could not be better. I've paid twice as much for similar accommodation. Emma is a lovely host, nothing was too much trouble. I've recommended these cabins to everyone I've spoken to and would book again when we need some R&R. Thanks again!

We had a really lovely stay for my wife’s birthday. It’s such a beautiful space with amazing views and we were so welcomed by our host by who laid out special extras as arranged for my wife’s birthday and invited us to see the fresh baby calf at the farm, she also gave us many recommendations for lots of things to do during our stay which were much appreciated. The cabin was really well thought out, aswell as being well equipped even with lots of children’s toys for our 2 year old. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful stay at the Cnocell y Coed treehouse which was stunning inside and out - fantastic amenities, luxurious, spotlessly clean and with very comfortable beds! The view was breathtaking, even from the hot tub - such a lovely way to wind down as a family, even on rainy days.
Emma was an incredible host, responding immediately to all messages and questions both in the run up to and during our stay. She had provided lots of essentials for the stay and went the extra mile a few times such as providing a Valentine’s Day craft project for the kids to do on a rainy day, as well as providing a bubbly treat for the adults!
To top it off, having access to their quarry for fossil hunting was an exciting bonus, we found so many fossils!
We’ll certainly be coming back!

We had such a relaxed time at Cnocell y Coed, the house was beautiful with the smallest of details from the perfectly placed bird feeder outside the kitchen window to watch the finches in the morning to the automatic curtain opener so there was no need to get out of bed before seeing the gorgeous view across the rolling hills. Everything was of high quality, the hot tub was amazing and we were lucky enough to be in it while watching the owl at dusk. There were places to visit a drive away but we spent one full day around the house, building fires to cook sausages and marshmallows on and whittling, my teenage boys flew their drones and were able to use their remote control cars while we read and explored our surroundings on foot. At night the stars were amazing I've never seen anything like it. Emma was a fantastic host and available for any questions and recommendations; Elan Dam and ice cream at Llanfaes Dairy ice cream in Brecon were a hit even in February. Cnocell y Coed was truly a great escape to the country and one the whole family would recommend or as an adult get away.

Myself, my partner and friends stayed at Rhiw wood over new year. We couldn’t have enjoyed the stay more. Everything was perfect. The treehouse is done to a high standard and Emma has thought about literally everything you might need while you’re there. The views are unreal, and the location itself is great as it’s not too far away from places to walk and go eat.
Emma was really attentive during our stay and is so friendly. Couldn’t fault anything and will definitely be back! Thank you!

We stayed at Cnocell y Coed for four nights in autumn. The treehouse is absolutely stunning! The views out of the huge windows are breathtaking! Every morning we didn't know what we would wake up to, because it looked different every day. We got to watch red kites soaring in the skies all day long. The view from the hot tub is also incredible.
Our stay was incredibly peaceful. The area is quiet and perfect for a relaxing getaway. Emma was a great host, friendly and always on hand if you have questions or want recommendations for a day out. Couldn't recommend it more!

A fantastic stay from start to finish. Beautiful treehouse in a wonderful setting, the hosts went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Throughly enjoyed our weekend.

The perfect place to make wonderful memories. The Wood really is magical with so much wildlife and beauty and the treehouse does a fantastic job at reflecting this. We had a wonderful meal outside in the deck area before settling into the hot tub to catch the sunset. The treehouse was clean, spacious with plenty to do and gave lots of inspiration to get out to explore. we came back fresh and already planning my return!

We will never pass your personal information on to any third parties, which is why we don't ask you whether or not we need your permission to do so! Find out more about our Privacy Policy.
Thank you for signing up
One more thing, we need to confirm your email address just to make sure we only send our newsletter out to those who really want it.
To do this, please click the link in the confirmation email we just sent you.
Book with us in confidence knowing you won’t find that place cheaper elsewhere. All of the prices we display are set and matched by our Owners. (In this world of foreign currency, we do have to say 'subject to exchange rates' for some of our European places.)
What does ‘from price’ mean?
Our ‘from price’ is based on a four night stay in low season and designed to help you to compare different prices across our collection. Some of our Owners vary their nightly rates and check in days throughout the year, so it may differ from the rate quoted below the calendar. It is quite common (although by no means universal) for places to charge a little more in peak season or for shorter stays, to cover changeover costs. Consider booking longer stays during the cooler months if you’re looking for the lowest nightly rates.
Agency Terms & Conditions
Except where otherwise specified, we Sawday’s Canopy & Stars Ltd (Company No 09088366) of Merchants House, Wapping Road, Bristol, BS1 4RW act only as an Agent in respect of all bookings we take and/or make on your behalf. As an Agent we act as an intermediary between you and the owner (‘’Owner’’) of the holiday accommodation (‘’Property’’) you will be staying in. We help to arrange reservations and bookings between you and the Owner and take payments from you on behalf of the Owner.
We are only arranging a contract between you and the Owner for hire of the Property and for any other services or arrangement you purchase from the Owner (the “Booking”). This means the legal contract for the Booking is between you and the Owner despite the fact that a payment for the Booking has been made to the Agent. Your contract for the Booking is not with Sawday’s Canopy & Stars Ltd (Canopy & Stars).
Canopy & Stars is part of the Sawday’s family of companies, a majority employee owned business, 24% owned by a charitable trust and a B Corp. We accept no liability in relation to any contract you enter into in relation to Bookings or for the acts or omissions of any supplier(s) or other person(s) or party(ies) connected with any Booking.
When making your Booking we will arrange for you to enter into a contract with the Owner, as detailed in clause 1.2 below. Your Booking is subject to these Agency Terms & Conditions and any other specific booking conditions of the relevant Owner(s) you contract with. The Owner’s booking conditions may limit and/or exclude the Owner’s liability to you.
You may decide to make more than one Booking at the same time. The price charged in total for more than one Booking will always equal the prices charged separately for each individual Booking. All Bookings are available to be purchased separately at the same price as they are when more than one Booking is made. This means that any multiple Bookings do not constitute a package as defined in the Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours Regulations 1992.
By making a booking, you agree that:
- You have read these Agency Terms & Conditions and agree to be bound by them;
- The lead name on the Booking will be the person responsible for the Booking and shall be responsible for paying the deposit and the full price, for making any amendment and cancellation requests and for the payment of any additional charges. The lead name accepts these Terms & Conditions on behalf of all persons in the Booking;
- You consent to our use of your information in accordance with our Privacy Policy;
- You are over 18 years of age and where there may be age restrictions in place, you declare that you and all members of your party are of the appropriate age
The Canopy & Stars online booking system enables Guests to make Bookings 24 hours a day. To confirm your booking, you must pay a 25% deposit (or full payment if booking within 10 weeks of your check in date) and the entire Booking will be subject to the cancellation policy as outlined in clause 2 below. The Canopy & Stars telephone booking line is open Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm and Saturdays 10am to 2pm. When using the online enquiry form, for those Properties without online booking, please allow 24 working hours for us to contact you by telephone to confirm the Booking. If we are unable to reach you by phone, we will attempt to contact you by email. We will contact you during Canopy & Stars working hours (Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm and Saturday 10am to 2pm). Online or email enquiries will be dealt with in the order they are received, but please be aware that we cannot guarantee reservation of your selected dates until the receipt of suitable payment. Therefore, if possible, we do recommend that you book on the Canopy & Stars website using the online booking system.
1. Booking and payments
1.1 In order to confirm your chosen Booking, you must pay a 25% non-refundable deposit as required (or full payment if booking within 10 weeks of the date of your check-in). The deposit is non-refundable as it covers costs incurred and services provided to enable your Booking. These include, but are not limited to, marketing and PR, property inspection fees, Owner management, booking management, credit card fees and customer service.
1.2 Your Booking is confirmed and a contract between you and the Owner will exist when we receive payment of the deposit and send you a booking confirmation on the Owner’s behalf. This Booking confirmation email will be sent within 24 hours and will contain the details of your Booking and of payments made and due. If you have not received your Booking confirmation email within the specified time, please notify us as soon as possible by email (bookings@canopyandstars.co.uk). Please check your confirmation carefully and report any incorrect or incomplete information to us immediately. As we act only as booking Agent, we have no responsibility for any errors in any documentation except where an error is made by us.
1.3 Once the 25% deposit has been paid, the full balance payment will be due 10 weeks in advance of your check in. A reminder to pay your balance will be sent to you one week prior to this 10 week date, where applicable, by email. We automatically take the balance payment using the same card as used to make the deposit payment. It is your responsibility to advise us if we should use a different card and to contact us by telephone (0117 204 7830) to arrange for alternative payment method. If the automated balance payment does not successfully go through as there is a problem with your card, such as it is expiring, then we will contact you to try and take alternative payment. If you do not make any payment due to Canopy & Stars by the due date for payment and at the latest within 5 days of this date, then with regret, we will notify the Owner who will cancel your Booking and terminate their contract with you. In these circumstances, your rights to a refund are set out in clause 2.3 and 2.4 below. Please note that if you have paid in a currency that is different to the original pricing, we will not be able to guarantee the same conversion rate that was used to convert the deposit payment.
1.4 Except where otherwise advised or stated in the booking conditions of the Owner concerned, all monies you pay to us for a Booking will be held on behalf of the Owner(s) concerned.
1.5 Credit Card payments are processed via Elavon who provide merchants services facilities to Sawday’s Canopy & Stars Ltd.
2. Cancellation by You
2.1 If you have to, or want to cancel or amend your Booking, this request must be sent to us by email (bookings@canopyandstars.co.uk) and will be considered and responded to within two working days of receipt. Please ensure that you have received written confirmation of any changes to your Booking prior to travel. Whilst we will always try to help, we cannot guarantee that such requests will be met.
2.2 Cancellation by you at any time will result in your 25% deposit being forfeited. The deposit is always non-refundable as it covers costs incurred and services provided to enable your Booking.
2.3 All bookings are non-amendable and non-refundable within 10 weeks of your check in date. If you need to cancel your booking within 10 weeks, the total cost of the accommodation including the deposit will be forfeited. Cancellation should always be in writing to bookings@canopyandstars.co.uk.
2.4 If you need to cancel your booking at a date 10 weeks or more in advance of your check in date, the 25% deposit will be forfeited. If the booking has been paid in full the balance will be returned to you, minus the 25% deposit. Refunds will be issued in the same form and ratio as the original payment was made. Therefore, if a Gift Voucher was used to book your stay, the refund will be back onto a new Gift Voucher at the same amount as originally used. Alternatively, if you paid in cash, your refund will be processed in the currency of the booking. Where this is different to the currency of the payment card, this will be converted at the current exchange rate on the day of the refund.
2.5 Cancellations made by you, at any time, may incur a £50 administration fee in addition to us retaining the non-refundable deposit. This represents the administration costs incurred by us on behalf of the Owner to deal with such requests.
2.6 If extreme weather prevents you from reaching your holiday, taking, or finishing your holiday, you are still subject to these cancellation terms as outlined in clause 2.3 above. We strongly recommend that you take out a travel insurance policy which covers this eventuality. In the event of the property becoming unavailable (such as due to fire or flooding), Canopy & Stars will endeavour to provide the Guest with suitable alternative accommodation, starting with any other accommodation that may be available with the same Owner of your Booking, or will refund all monies paid, or a proportion in the case of curtailment. The Agency cannot, however, pay any compensation or expenses as a consequence of such an event.
2.7 Cancellation insurance is available to purchase from many providers, but will be a third-party arrangement and not involve Canopy & Stars or the Owner in any way. You are strongly recommended to take out personal travel insurance for all members of your party for UK holidays and you must take out personal travel insurance for international holidays, including for illness and cancellation due to Covid-19. It is your responsibility to ensure that the insurance cover is adequate for your needs, including cancellation and curtailment.
2.8 If you fail to check-in on your date of arrival your Booking will be cancelled and no refund will be due.
3. Amendments to your booking, requested by you
3.1 Amendments to your Booking can only be made more than 10 weeks prior to the check in date, after which time amendments may be treated as cancellation and our refund policy as detailed in clause 2.3 above may apply. All amendments are subject to availability and may incur a £50 admin fee detailed in clause 2.5 above.
3.2 If we can fulfil your request to amend your booking, any differences in price as a result of the amendment, will be paid by you in the case of an increase and refunded to you in the case of a decrease in price, e.g. amending your booking from low season to high season.
3.3 In the event that a date swap is offered, this will normally be agreed with a set timeframe to rebook and sometimes a credit against a future stay will be offered. The credit can only apply to a stay at the same space as originally booked.
3.3.1 If a date swap is offered, then the Agency Booking Terms and Conditions applied at the time of your original booking will still apply. Therefore, if your date was swapped within 10 weeks of the original check in date, the 10 week cancellation policy set out in clause 2.3 applies to your new stay, even if the new check in date is beyond 10 weeks.
4. Refunds
If a refund is issued it will be in the same form and ratio as the original payment was made. Therefore, if a Gift Voucher was used to purchase the original stay, the refund will be back onto a new Gift Voucher at the same amount as originally used.
5. Insurance
You are strongly recommended to take out personal travel insurance for all members of your party for your holiday, including holidays in the UK. It is your responsibility to ensure that the insurance cover is adequate for your needs, including cancellation and curtailment for any reason. Please read your policy details carefully and take them with you on holiday.
6. Changes and Cancellations by the Owner
We will inform you as soon as reasonably possible if the Owner needs to make a significant change to your confirmed Booking or to cancel your Booking. We will also liaise between you and the Owner to try and organise an alternative Booking offered by the Owner, or a refund but we will have no further liability to you.
7. Cancellations due to events outside of Owner’s control
An Owner may have to cancel a booking due to events outside of their reasonable control (see clause 22). In such circumstances, we will liaise between you and the Owner to try and organise an any alternative Booking offered by the Owner, or a refund but we will have no further liability to you.
8. Complaints & Procedure
We always aim to provide the best possible holiday experience, however, if you have any complaint or problems during your stay, please immediately notify the Owner during the stay itself, so that the Owner has the opportunity to resolve the problem at the time. If you do not follow this procedure, there will be less opportunity for the Owner to investigate and resolve your complaint and to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Delays may also mean that the amount of compensation you may be entitled to, may be reduced or negated.
Whether or not your complaint is dealt with satisfactorily, please also let us know of the problem as soon as possible by emailing info@canopyandstars.co.uk. We will aim to respond within 1 working day to acknowledge your email. We will then review your feedback and investigate the complaint. This may involve discussing your concerns with the owner, revising the website listing for inaccuracies, and reviewing previous guest feedback and internal inspection notes. This process can take time to complete, so please allow approx. 7 working days for a final response.
We also welcome you to fill in our feedback survey which will be sent to you via email the day after you check out. It is important for us to gather as much information as possible about the experiences our guests are having. This is what helps us support our Owner in fulfilling their potential and identifying if anything could be improved.
9. Our Responsibility for your Booking
Your contract is with the Owner and its booking conditions apply. As Agent, we accept no responsibility for the actual provision of the Booking. Our responsibilities are limited to making the Booking in accordance with your instructions and acting properly in accordance with our legal duties as an Agent. We accept no responsibility for any information about the Booking that we pass on to you in good faith. However, in the event that we are found liable to you on any basis whatsoever, our maximum liability to you is limited to twice the cost of your Booking (or the appropriate proportion of this if not everyone on the Booking is affected). We do not exclude or limit any liability for death or personal injury that arises as a result of our negligence or that of any of our employees whilst acting in the course of their employment.
10. Your Responsibilities
10.1 Please note that you have a contract with the Owner of the property. As such you are under a responsibility to behave in a proper, appropriate and legal manner whilst staying at the property with due respect to the Owner, the Property and other guests and their Property.
10.2 You are responsible for informing the Owner of any losses or damage to the property as soon as possible. Please note that you will be liable to pay the Owner for any losses or damage to the property caused by you or a member of your party (except reasonable wear and tear). Some Owners may also require a damage deposit. If so, this information will be provided on the website place page under ‘essentials’.
10.3 You must also leave the property by the check-out time specified on your Booking. If any guest behaves inappropriately or improperly (of which the Owner will be the final judge on their Property), or illegally, the Owner reserves the right to ask the guest and their party (at their discretion) to leave the Property before the end of the holiday period and/or refuse any future bookings from you. Please note that this would be without the right to any refund.
11. Pets
11.1 Not all properties accept pets. If you wish to take your pet on holiday, please advise us before booking and we can check whether pets are accepted at the property. You must obtain the prior consent of the Owner before taking any pets to the property. If you take a pet to a place that doesn’t allow pets, or you exceed the number of pets allowed at a place, the Owner has the right to refuse you to stay at the Property, and/or they may ask you to leave the Property before the end of the holiday period. Please note that this would be without the right to any refund.
11.2 A nightly charge may be made by the Owner for each pet and additional terms may apply, you will be notified of this at point of Booking. Please check these terms carefully before booking and arriving.
11.3 Please do not leave your pets alone or unsupervised in the property at any time during your stay. For the safety and comfort of your pet we request that Owners exercise due diligence at all times, especially where the property is located near a road/livestock. Canopy & Stars nor the Owner can accept responsibility for the safety of your pet.
11.4 If any guest has an allergy to pets, please be aware that Owners (and we) cannot guarantee that a pet has not stayed in a particular Property. We and Owners cannot accept responsibility for any suffering which may occur as a result of such animals having been present in a property.
11.5 We ask that all owners of pets keep their pet under control at all times and to be responsible for ensuring that they do not damage the Property, livestock or vegetation during the stay. You will be liable for any damage caused by your pet. Any damage is to be reported to the Owner immediately. Any additional cleaning required, that may incur an additional charge, will be at the Owner's discretion.
12. Special requests
If you have any special requests (for example dietary requirements, allergy, cots or room location), please let us know at the time of booking. We will pass on all such requests to the Owner, but unfortunately, we can't guarantee that they will be met and we will have no liability to you if they are not.
13. Maximum Numbers
Please note that except by prior arrangement confirmed in writing, only the number of persons specified on a booking confirmation may occupy a property. Most owners reserve the right to refuse admittance or revoke a Booking if this condition is not observed and you are unlikely to receive any refund.
13.1 The Owner reserves the right to sue the guest for any loss, damage or injury caused to the Owner, the Property or to other guests and/or their property. As Agent, we will have no liability to you in these circumstances.
13.2 The Owner only supplies the Property for domestic and private use. You agree not to use the Property for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose, and the Owner has no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity. If you do wish to use the Property for a commercial purpose, you must contact Canopy & Stars prior to confirming your booking.
14. Group Bookings
Not all Owners accept Bookings for a single sex group (for example, a stag or hen party). Guests wanting to make such a Booking should check with us beforehand to enable us to check whether the Owner is prepared to accept the Booking. We will then advise you accordingly. In event that an Owner does not accept this type of Booking then it is with regret, that the Booking may be cancelled, and cancellation fees may apply. It is the Guest’s responsibility to enquire with Canopy & Stars and/or check on our website beforehand to make sure that this type of Booking is permitted.
15. Pricing
15.1 Canopy & Stars reserve the right to amend advertised prices at any time on behalf of the Owner. We also reserve the right to correct errors in both advertised and confirmed prices. Special note: changes and errors sometimes occur.
15.2 Rates are set per place in the currency specified by the Owner. Where this has been converted into the currency of your preference, until the payment stage this will be an estimation only, based on a recent exchange rate. The original rate will be displayed before you confirm your payment and you will be given the option of paying in your own currency at our guaranteed rate, or paying in your own currency and leaving the conversion and any associated fees to your card provider.
16. Information & Accuracy
The information and prices shown on this website are varied from time to time and may change between the time you first view a property and make a Booking. You should check that all the details are as you expect prior to making a Booking. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the properties (including the features and extras available) may be incorrectly described and/or priced. If we discover this is the case after you have made a Booking, we reserve the right to contact you with details of the correct information and/or pricing and will give you the option to:
(1) proceed with the Booking based on the correct information and/or pricing, which may require the payment of an additional amount by you
OR
(2) subject to availability, change your booking dates to dates when the pricing can be honoured and so no additional charge to you. In the event that a lower price can be offered for alternative dates then the difference would be refunded
OR
(3) cancel the Booking. If we do not receive your instructions within 5 days of contacting you, we reserve the right to cancel your Booking without liability to you.
17. VAT
Many of the Owners of properties in the Canopy & Stars portfolio are not registered for VAT in which case no tax is payable. Where VAT is payable, the tax is included in the advertised holiday rental price. If the rate of VAT changes between the date of the Booking and the date of the stay, Canopy & Stars may adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Booking in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
18. Visa, passport and health requirements
Unless you tell us otherwise, we assume that all members of your party are British citizens who hold or will hold full British passports valid for the entire duration of the international Booking. Information on visa, passport and health requirements, where given and applicable, is so given on this basis. Requirements may change and you are therefore strongly recommended to check the up to date position with the Owner of the Booking, Passport Office, appropriate embassy or consulate or your doctor as applicable in good time before the commencement of your holiday. Prior to international travel it is your responsibility to check whether it is safe to travel by visiting the FCO website www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice.
19. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These terms and conditions have been drafted in accordance with and are governed by English law and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction in relation to any and all disputes arising out of these Agency Terms & Conditions.
20. Discrepancies
In case of a discrepancy between these Agency Terms & Conditions and any other Canopy & Stars literature, these Agency Terms & Conditions shall prevail.
21. Validity clause
In the event that a court finds that a condition in these Agency Terms & Conditions is illegal or void, the illegal or void provision will be severed from the remainder of the Agency Terms & Conditions, which will continue to be valid and have full force and effect.
22. Events beyond an Owner or Agency’s control
If an Owner or Canopy & Stars is prevented or delayed from complying with any of their respective obligations under these Agency Terms & Conditions or a contract for a Booking due to events or circumstances beyond their reasonable control, the inability or delay in performing those obligations will not be treated as a breach of these Agency Terms & Conditions or a contract for a Booking. Examples of such events or circumstances include fire, flood and other acts of God, strikes, trade disputes, lock outs, restrictions of imports or exports, riot, accident, disruption to energy supplies, civil commotion, acts of terrorism or war, pandemic (including Covid-19), any national/local/regional government restrictions.
Thank you for wading through all the very boring, but very important stuff above.
Now the outdoors is calling, so go and get wild in nature!
I’d consider myself a well seasoned traveller but I’ve never stayed somewhere like this before. It manages to tick every box by being exquisitely designed with every detail and yet is homely, comfortable and super relaxing. The photos were impressive but the views in reality were breathtaking
