CONTACT WITH OWNER

Can I contact the Owner directly?                  

We should be able to answer any questions prior to you making the booking. So unless you have made a booking please contact us on 0117 204 7830 or email us on info@canopyandstars.co.uk

Can I contact the Owner directly once I have booked?

Yes, their contact details are on the email confirmation we send you. If you’ve already booked, try searching for this subject line: ‘Your booking at….’ Or let us know your reference number and we can give you the contact details.

Who should I contact if I have a question about my up and coming stay? 

It’s best that you speak to the owners directly if you have a question about your stay e.g. the local area, what’s included, organising breakfast or a hamper etc. Their contact details are on your booking confirmation. Alternatively, our Guest Experience team are always on hand to help. 

 

AMENDMENTS TO BOOKINGS

How do I change or cancel my booking?

We’ll need you to request cancellation by emailing bookings@canopyandstars.co.uk. We’ll then get in touch for a chat. Alterations to your booking can only be made more than 10 weeks prior to the check in date, after which time alterations will be treated as cancellations. All alterations are subject to availability and may incur a £30 administration fee.

Can I have an early check in / late check out? 

All our spaces are owned by independent owners, so policies vary. Its best that you contact the owners directly to see whether they can make any special arrangements, but this is not guaranteed and may incur a fee. 

Should I buy travel insurance?  

Yes, we always recommend that you have comprehensive travel insurance, including for stays in the UK. We recommend you take out a policy which covers you in the event of cancellation and has good medical coverage for international trips. Your coverage in the event of Coronavirus-related issues will depend on your insurer. Please contact them if you have questions. Guests booking international stays must have travel insurance which covers cancellation.

 

GIFT CARDS

How can I purchase a gift card?

You can purchase Gift Cards online 24/7. Select the e-card option to get a digital card straight away, or enter a postal address and we'll send it out to you first class. Expect 3 to 5 working days for it to arrive.

If you want next day delivery give us a call on 0117 204 7830 and we can arrange this at an additional charge of £5.

Can I buy a gift card for a particular space?

We want to offer people as much flexibility as possible, so we don’t offer space-specific Gift Cards, but instead allow our guests to redeem against a booking at any of our spaces.

Can Canopy & Stars vouchers be used for Sawday’s spaces?

Sadly no, Sawday’s is our sister company but the two are administered separately.

 

PRICING AND FLEXIBILITY

Why is the ‘from price’ different to the actual price of my selected dates?

The ‘from price’ is based on a low season, mid-week 4 night stay. So for example, if you have selected weekend dates in peak season, the total price will be higher than the “from” price multiplied by the number of nights. 

Will I get a better price if I go directly to the Owner?

All of the prices we display are set and matched by our Owners. So the answer is no, we have a low price promise which means you can book with us in confidence, knowing you won’t find that place cheaper elsewhere.

Can I stay less than the advertised minimum night stay?

This all depends on where you would like to stay. All our Owners set their own policies and some have a little more flexibility than others. To find out if they can take a different length of stay, give us a call on 0117 204 7830.

Are there any additional charges apart from the advertised price?

No, we do not add on any additional fees. Some owners may have additional charges for wood, use of the hot tub or other extras, but these will always be clearly stated on the place page.

Are hot tubs included in the price? 

All our spaces are owned by independent owners, so policies and pricing may vary. Always check the ‘essentials’ tab on the website listing, this should highlight whether or not the hot tub is included in the price. If there is an additional cost for the hot tub, this can be paid directly to the owners on arrival. 

Can I change my payment method? 

We will collect the remaining balance 10 weeks prior to your stay, automatically from the card you paid the deposit with. If for any reason you need to change the card, just call us on 0117 204 7830 and we can process the payment over the telephone using your preferred card. 

 

PAYMENT METHODS

Do I need to pay a deposit on booking?

Yes, if your booking is more than 10 weeks ahead of your stay, you can either choose to pay a deposit of 25% or pay the full amount. If you do pay a deposit, the balance will be due 10 weeks before your stay. For bookings made within 10 weeks of your check in day, the full amount is required at time of booking.

Can I pay off my balance in instalments?

We’re afraid not. We require a 25% non-refundable deposit for all bookings with check in dates of more than 10 weeks away. The balance will be due 10 weeks before check in day. It can be paid in advance of that date, but only in a single payment.

What card can I pay with?

We accept any debit or credit card apart from American Express.

Can I pay via BACS payment?

Sorry, but we don’t offer a BACS payment service.

What currency do I have to pay in?

Rates are set per place in the currency specified by the Owner. Where this has been converted into the currency of your preference, the total cost of your booking will be an estimation only, based on the recent exchange rate, until the payment is made. 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 a guaranteed rate, or leaving the conversion and any associated fees to your card provider.

Do I need to pay the Owner a security deposit?

Some Owners may request a security deposit, this usually only applies to big groups – to find out whether this applies to you, see the ‘essentials’ tab on the place page.

Why might my card be declined?

We are not notified with a reason as to why a payment has been declined. We can only see the card type, amount charged and success or failure of a transaction. Transaction failure may be due to a problem with your card, your bank or potentially our payment system. Please call us on 0117 204 7830 and we will see if we can help complete your booking.

What do I do if I haven’t received my booking confirmation email?

Firstly check your Junk Mail just in case it’s ended up in there. If not, give us a call ASAP on 0117 204 7830 and we can check the details are correct and resend it to you.
