GLAMPSITES GLAMPING, IT’S SPREADING Whilst in the UK the south has been the heartland for glamping, it’s time for other regions, particularly Ireland and northern England, to take their turn in the spotlight. Both have seen increased interest with a slew of places springing up and Canopy & Stars is on the hunt for more. 200m from where the Celtic Sea laps at the shore of southernmost Ireland, Ballyshane in Co. Cork overlooks the entire horizon. Spend a few days with only the sea air and bird calls as you potter about the beautifully crafted cabin and wake to sunlight pouring in from the massive picture window. From £141 per night (sleeps 3). Just outside The Nidderdale AONB, Cran Darach Treehouse is a haven surrounded by greenery. While Yorkshire’s natural wonders beckon nearby, the meticulous craftsmanship by owners William and Julie makes it challenging to leave. The treehouse, wrapped around oak trees, has its own a private garden, sauna and hot tub. From £251 per night (sleeps 2). Cran Darach Treehouse Woodland Cabin at Mill Valley PETS NEED HOLIDAYS TOO Holidaying with your dog has been growing in popularity in recent years and the pandemic puppy boom means a third of all UK households have a dog. Dog holidays now make up nearly 20% of Canopy & Stars’ bookings. What about the cats though? Our bookings team have had an influx of cat enquiries this year too, as cat lovers want to take their beloved pets away. Several Canopy & Stars places are rising to the demand and welcoming cats on breaks too. Lark at A Place in the Pines in Yorkshire is one place that has welcomed feline guests in 2023. This sleek Scandi-style cabin provides a cosy escape for a couple (maybe the kids) and their cat. The showstopper is the outdoor bathing deck – two handsome brass tubs set undercover, perfect for a long soak while gazing out at the night sky. From £199 per night (sleeps 4). With a whole collection dedicated to dogfriendly glamping there are lots of options to choose from, one that stands out is Woodland Cabin at Mill Valley in Cornwall. Charming, rustic, off grid and with dog friends thrown in. Over an acre of secured land, for off-lead walks, and the Cornish coast with magical woodland walks, windy coastal paths and sweeping beaches to explore. From £110 per night (sleeps 2). MORE INFORMATION Canopy & Stars has over a decade of experience in helping owners to build, develop and make their spaces a success. Its collection of inspiring places to stay in the great outdoors connects independent owners to guests in search of a life more wild.
