Canopy and Stars: Enchanting cabins, treehouses and intimate huts for two
Drop all the stuff that doesn’t matter and take that person or those people that matter the most, to a place where all there is, is you and them.

Find a haven where time stretches endlessly, allowing you both the opportunity to relish the uninterrupted connection. From a fairytale hut in the Cumbrian hinterlands to double outdoor bathtubs in Devon or a hot tub cinema in Herefordshire.

If it’s too tricky to decide, treat your loved one to a Canopy & Stars gift card and they can make up their own mind. www.canopyandstars.co.uk/gift-cards
