About Canopy & Stars
More from Sawday's
Glamping holidays are undeniably different from any other kind. From treehouses and cabins to yurts, huts and boats, each location is a far cry from the last. Each place promising the happy screech of kids running around the picnic table, the heart stopping second you let go of a river swing, or the late-night murmur and clink of bottles round the fire.
We personally inspect all of our glamping holidays in the UK, ensuring you have the connection with nature, the memories you couldn’t make anywhere else or the peace and quiet only wild spaces can afford you. To us, special isn’t just a word, it’s an experience you couldn’t have anywhere else.
The campfire is calling, the stars waiting, the woods and streams unexplored and untraversed – browse our collection of places we’ve personally visited, tested and loved below.
We've been walking with guests from activist Mikaela Loach to adventurer Alastair Humphreys and the lady known as The Human Swan. We've climbed mountains with Lise Wortley, foraged with Gaz Oakley and done the rounds on the farm with Julius Roberts . We were even nominated in the British Podcast Awards alongside Lily Allen and Kathy Burke.
We’re more than just glamping holidays in the UK. We’re a small, independent travel company that specialises in unique places to stay in nature, sure. We also champion sustainability and strive to make an impact on the world with all our choices. We only work with owners who’ve put their heart and soul into a space, and make glamping holidays truly special. Enduring the hardship of inspecting every single glamping place we add to the collection, we know how to match you with the perfect place.
Listening to the swaying of the trees and the song of the birds as the steam drifts up and the hot water soaks your tired limbs is one of the most blissful feelings you’ll ever know. So, when you see a treehouse with a hot tub, get yourself up there, you won’t regret it.
Give your focus to one thing – or one person – at a time on a cabin getaway. It’s good for the soul. Take a look at our off-grid cabins where your only urgent reminder is to enjoy the present.
We bring you treehouses made from the very forests they stand in, architectural marvels with beds comfier than a 5-star hotel’s and unique spaces that will fill your inner child with glee.
We spoke to a master of foraging, and an authority on wild jams – Fern Freud of Foraged by Fern, based in Sussex. Fern forages the fields, hedgerows and coast for delicacies, crafting dishes from what she finds.
In Wild Weekends we give you the chance to experience a weekend in nature, through the eyes of someone new. There are five great guests and we'll be sharing one episode a month. In episode two we join plant-based chef Gaz Oakley as he visits The Fold in Herefordshire. He contemplates the importance of caring for ourselves as he gets woken by birds, unwinds in the sauna and cooks pizza too hot to eat, even when drizzled with wild garlic sauce.
What is glamping?
Literally, "glamorous camping". Glamping is about being able to experience nature without having to pack all your camping gear. Amazing places to stay in the UK and Europe, such as treehouses, cabins and yurts with great beds and creature comforts, so you're surrounded by nature and don't have to try and fit a hot tub in a rucksack.
Why go glamping?
There are plenty of reasons why you should go glamping in the UK and Europe. Not only do you get the basics of camping, but also the added luxuries that come with glamping. And there's all these too:
What to bring glamping
What you need to bring will vary depending on which you're visiting. Always read the Essentials section for the place you're going to and get in touch with our Guest Experience Team if anything is unclear. You will only need to bring bedding in very few cases. It can be a good idea to stock up on food before you arrive, because some places have no shops nearby. We also recommend bringing:
Where can I go glamping?
Glamping is everywhere! We have unique glamping spaces all across the UK and Europe. From triangular pods in the depths of Cornwall to mirror cubes in the forests of Sweden, you will always find somewhere to glamp.
What is glamping accommodation?
Glamping accommodation is the best of camping and the best of hotels mashed together. Every space combines the outdoor adventure of camping with some creature comforts. Some are bit more rustic, with just wood-burners for heat and campfires for cooking, some have roll top baths and induction hobs, but let the outdoors in through rolled-back canvas walls.
Can you go glamping in winter?
Yes. Glamping in the UK during Winter is all about sitting by crackling campfires and wood burners, wrapped in blankets, or making a shrieking dash from the hot tub back into the warmth. Many places (especially the canvas ones) do close during Winter, when owners take time for maintenance or making exciting site changes, but the ones that are open are lovely.
Is glamping suitable for young children?
Definitely! In fact, it's beyond suitable, it's perfect. Yes, there are places across the UK and Europe where you'll need to be careful of a pond, or uneven ground, but we can help you choose a place where the kids can meet the animals, build dens and learn to love the outdoors.
