On arrival you may well be greeted by Charlie Brown, terrier and proprietor of Cwm Farm. Well, technically that’s Tim, who lives with Charlie in the cottage across the field, and whose paintings festoon the walls of this raised, Swedish-style log cabin. During the summer, a family of swallows live under the roof, and it’s incredibly easy to pass the time sitting on the covered veranda that extends right around the cabin, watching their aerial acrobatics. There's other wildlife you might hear, with cows and sheep in the neighbouring fields, and a kennel next door where happy occupants celebrate their mealtimes throughout the day.
Retreat inside and you’ll find an open plan space, complete with artists’ easel and desk, a comfortable double bed and a wood burner to keep things cosy. Everything you might need for coffee brewing or sausage frying is also on hand and Charlie will be delighted to assist. The mezzanine level, which is unguarded, is reached by wooden ladder and provides space either for extra guests or just to lie back on the mattresses and read a book. The private compost loo and wonderfully hot shower operated from a solar-powered pump are reachable down a few steps to the side of the cabin.

Meet your hosts
Owner Tim bought Cwm Farm in 1998 and for many years it was enjoyed by the family as a wonderful rural retreat, during which time it has been renovated and the four acres of land brought back under control. It has been lived in permanently for the last few years.
The Log House Studio was the result of Tim's long-held passion for wooden buildings, two courses in Sweden on traditional log-house construction, and three years of hard graft (in between earning a living as a Communications Consultant).
The main elements of the Log House were built from locally-felled larch trees and constructed largely using only specialist axes and manual logging equipment.
Having completed the Log-House, Tim embarked on his next project (with his daughter) to build Inshriach Shepherd’s Hut – also part of the Canopy & Stars collection! In 2020/2021 Tim, Lizzy and Walter joined forces again to create Inshriach Loghouse, another Westman/Micklethwait 'timmerhus'!
Wildlife & Environment
Cwm Farm is surrounded by agricultural land: Welsh Black cattle graze the field to one side and mixed beef cattle or sheep enjoy life on the fields behind. Birdlife is abundant – buzzards, red kites and and other birds of prey can be seen regularly, and a blackbird is nesting on one of the log-house purlins, with a wren nesting under the verandah.
On arrival you may well be greeted by Charlie Brown, terrier and proprietor of Cwm Farm.

There was no electricity, the place was not particularly clean, there was a 5 step shower process and no running water, tap, hose or sink. Too expensive for what it was. The dogs at the kennels howled constantly and kept our dog up and vigilant all night.

Such a beautiful, warm and homely cabin. Tim had thought of so many small details to make us comfortable. A true retreat in nature and beautiful in Autumn!

We loved it, the log house is BEAUTIFUL, very peaceful and it feels very private although it is not far from Tim’s house. We were lucky with the weather and it was a short stay so didn’t get to light the outside fire but the views are lovely, you can see the sunrise and sunset from the cabin. Our dog LOVED the pool that’s been created from the stream and we came for his 10th birthday so it was perfect.

A wonderful two nights at this beautiful hand built cabin. The setting is absolutely idyllic. Tim our host was welcoming, thoughtful and very helpful. I would definitely recommend this studio.

Truly unplugged and peaceful. The log cabin was charming and homely. It was incredible to unplug and relax by candle light. We enjoyed chatting around a fire each evening and watching our dog run around the grounds. A wonderful, calming weekend.

Relaxing stay at the log house studio .Tim the owner is lovely and so is his beautiful dog Charlie brown. Tim has put alot of thought into this place and made our stay enjoyable showing us around the cabin on arrival with added bonus of a welcome bottle of wine and then left us to it .Cosy wood burner,stove inside for cooking if you don't want to use the fire pit,well stocked with kitchen utensils,pots and pans,matches, fire lighters and wood,all the things you need Tim seems to have thought of everything.Lovely hot shower.!
Visits from Charlie made our stay. Quiet with just the sounds of nature.Enjoyed the art around the studio too.Good spot for country walks or exploring local attractions nearest town not far and very nice. Definitely our favorite Canopy and Stars so far.!

What a fantastic stay! Tim was truly wonderful, super helpful and he has built such a beautiful log cabin. A perfect weekend away for friends with everything you needed in the gorgeous Welsh country side. He has thought of everything with that cabin!

Meena
We had a lovely stay at Tim's cabin, a really impressive structure that's hand built. It was spacious but cosy and being surrounded by some great artwork made it a unique spot. It's a good opportunity to feel fully off grid and enjoy some downtime by the fire or wandering round the meadows, lovely!

Such a lovely stay at the log house. Very cosy and great fun to stay in natural and rustic accommodation, in a beautiful area. Very helpful host.

A beautiful place, the owner was lovely (and so was his dog). Such a peaceful and inspirational place to stay. Some lovely walks. Great place if you want to be off grid and away from it all. Local town (about 15min drive) has some lovely pubs.

We had a really enjoyable stay in the Log House, it was a really relaxing spot and the owners (and their lovely dog) we're super friendly.

We had the most incredible stay at the cabin on Cwm Farm. The cabin was hand built by the owner Tim and true to the Swedish cabin style. Tim was very accommodating and left a bottle of wine for us on arrival. The location is perfect and deep in the countryside. Just the perfect get away from the hustle and bustle.

Absolutely fantastic stay. Great to switch off from the world and live, albeit briefly, at a slower pace of life. Great host and mini host . Will definitely be going back

We had a wonderful relaxing stay at The Log House Studio and would highly recommend this as a unique off grid experience in a beautiful Swedish cabin in a remote country setting in west Wales … stargazing at night and we were made so welcome by owner Tim and his beautiful dog Charlie Brown.

Sarah
We had a great time, it was every bit as relaxing as we'd expected. The host Tim was on hand when we arrived to show us around and give us the important tips and tricks. Despite being only a brief visit, we felt duly relaxed from the change of scene and change of pace.

My partner and I had wonderful time staying at the log house studio, we absolutely loved the log house and it was so calm to stay there. Tim and Charlie made us feel really welcomed.

We absolutely loved staying at the Log Cabin. It has been beautifully designed and built and has the best combination of off the grid but also feeling incredibly cosy. We absolutely loved it.

We absolutely loved our stay in The Log House Studio, a truly special and unique experience. Everything was very well thought out by Tim, our host. We loved that we were greeted by Charlie Brown, Tim's dog. He even visited us for breakfast.
The log burner kept us cosy on the chilly winter evenings! We loved playing cards by candle light. We have never seen so many stars in the night sky, absolutely mesmerising! Falling asleep to the sounds of the nearby stream and owls hooting was so relaxing. A real back to nature and back to basics wonderful experience!

Paula
We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful log cabin. We left all our devices at home and enjoyed playing chess by candlelight, cooking on the log fire and discovering the local villages. The National Botanical Gardens are a short drive away and well worth a day out. Tim was an excellent host and made us very welcome.

We had an amazing weekend at the log house. Tim, the owner was such a lovely host, nothing was too much trouble. Very friendly and welcoming. The log house was absolutely beautiful and the views were great to wake up to. Lots of fantastic pubs close by too with amazing food and really friendly staff. Lots to do around too, we were never bored. Beautiful.

Tim was a great host. What a lovely and very talented guy. Adds such a nice touch that Tim himself made this cabin using literally a saw and a couple more tools, we love those personal touches/stories.
Lovely cabin, real back to basics which is exactly what we were after. Great stuff to do in the area, highly recommend.
Thanks a lot Tim and Charlie!

Lovely lodge, The craftmanship and attention to detail makes this really special. we really enjoyed our stay here, board games, listening to the rain ping of the excellent roof to sitting on the balcony at night with the lamps lit drinking wine. Just perfect. Tim and his dog Charlie are superb hosts and we'd love to return in the future.

A very pleasant stay at a wonderful location in a beautifully made-up log cabin! Tim was very helpful and explained all that we needed to know to enjoy our stay. Despite storm Dennis, we thoroughly enjoyed cosying up by the fire in the light of paraffin lamps. Highly recommend!

Once in a while - and sometimes it feels like a very long while - you find a place that just enchants and inspires you beyond your wildest holiday dreams. Tim's Log House is one of those very special places. A true resting point for body and soul. Tim is a lovely man with a quiet passion for the world he has created and so kindly shares with us poor souls desperate to duck out of the jet-stream of the digital age - and find ourselves again. We stayed for three days and it felt like we had been there much longer... Because we got a genuine chance to decompress and just listen to the wind in the trees and enjoy the warm glow of the cosiest place we have ever stayed in - and long to stay in again. We salute you, Tim! And thank you Canopy and Stars for the introduction.

Lovely stay for a long weekend, back to basics and away from the busy work life. Disconnecting and just taking it all in, we both really loved it, and it was a shame we had to leave.

Benjamin
We had a wonderful time and did not want to leave. The owner, Tim, and his lovely dog Charlie Brown were great hosts. The cabin was beautiful. It was cosy and warm and we instantly felt at home. It was remote enough to feel secluded but it was only a short drive to the local pub and nearby town.
29/07/2019
Carol
Tim and Charlie Brown were a charming duo who took the best care of us at the lodge. The Cabin is magical, beautifully crafted and decorated. it provided must needed rest bite and it was a real wrench to leave.

Helen
This is a idyllic location that is as beautiful as it is peaceful. Wonderful vista's in every direction, with the sound of a bubbling stream as background to bird song. The cabin is adequate in every way and beautifully made. This is back to basic living at its very best, especially if you enjoy cooking on an open fire! The dog was equally as happy, making new friends with Charlie.
15/04/2019
Ian
We had a wonderful stay at the Log House. Meeting Tim and Charlie Brown was lovely and Tim made us feel very welcome. The house is gorgeous and to us, being in this simple environment was just the ticket. The weather was not great, but what better place to sit out a storm than in nature with a solid roof over your head. A very special place.

Mandy
We had a very comfortable stay at the Log House, even though it was off grid in February! It's the most luxurious cabin we've stayed in, but also charmingly rustic and simple. Tim has created a beautiful studio there with plenty of space to potter about in and lots to do on a rainy day. He's a very warm host and it is really special to stay in a place that he created lovingly by hand. Every detail has been considered. The wood burner keeps the cabin lovely and warm, and it's more than easy enough to cook on it with the cast iron pans provided. We cooked up a tagine and sketched by candle light. Perfect. There's even a hot shower (that I shared with an enormous spider) - what more could you possibly need! It's important for us to be able to access countryside easily, and there were some good hill walks and castles just a few minutes drive away, even better to find ones next to local crumbling pubs with cracking local ales. Be warned though, opening hours are different to those in the city! We loved our stay and would definitely recommend it. Tim's living the dream and I would suggest anyone should go and check it out for a slice of inspiration. Also Charlie Brown the dog is a dude.

It was truly a beautiful experience. Tim and Charlie the dog came to greet us on arrival, which I really appreciated as we were stuck in traffic and arrived much later than I had previously told Tim. The Log House Studio had a personal meaning to my husband who is Swedish, but I think anyone who stays here will soon develop a personal meaning with the studio! Tim was a great host and struck a good balance between being available for us and also letting us have the privacy. The building itself is truly impressive, surrounded by woodland and a big grassy pitch for my dog to run in. It felt secluded in a very peaceful sense. The studio was very well equipped with everything you could think of, including maps for the local area, ideas for local activities, umbrellas, LOTS of hurricane lamps & tealights which made the evenings very cosy, amazing gas cooker, chairs in all the right places, the beautiful terrace, I could go on...

Our time at the Log House Studio was absolutely fantastic. The cabin was amazing and everything we could have hoped for. Absolutely idyllic with an incredibly helpful host that was always on hand to lend assistance with a lovely dog that ket us company on the rainy days.
Thank you Tim and Charlie Brown.

We stayed at the log house studio to celebrate an anniversary and it was amazing. Tim (and Charlie the dog) made us super welcome and made sure everything was all set. Tim built the cabin himself and it is a stunning place to spend the weekend. It’s nestled in a remote little village away from everyone. We sat in the veranda and watched the sun go down, then cooked a bbq for dinner. Perfect weekend! Everywhere you look there are personal touches, a truly unique place to stay, we’ll be back!

When we arrived I was blown away by how picturesque the the log house was. Tim and Charlie made us feel right at home and gave us the grand tour, explaining how everything works. Every detail of the log studio added to the experience of staying there, from Tims amazing artwork on the walls to the hurricane lamps that lit up the room, it felt so well put together and homely. At night the lack of light pollution meant that the stars put on a show that was breathtakingly beautiful. We honestly couldn't have asked for more, I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing break away from all the hustle and bustle.

a lovely relaxing couple of days 'off grid'. very warm welcome, and charlie dog was super. Tim was very pleasant and friendly and we felt welcome to share his space, instead of uncomfortable. We felt our dogs were genuinely welcome, and they thoroughly chilled out! lovely lovely studio, very interesting, really well laid out. the shower was hot, the loo was fine, cooking facilites worked well as there were options depending on how you wanted to cook. the meadow was a great axtra space, and the location was really nice for a non beach holiday, lots of rivers, mountains, forests to explore.

Anna
It was amazing! Tim must have seen us coming down the lane as he came to greet us with Charlie Brown. He got us all set up and then left us to it mostly, but was always on hand if we needed anything.
The place was amazing. It had everything you needed. I got some serious naps in on the bed, on the mezzanine and in the hammock. The place was so peaceful, it was just perfect and the cabin is beautifully made.

Had the most amazing 2 days at this beautiful idyllic location. Even though we arrived in the torrential rain the cabin provided us with a warm nad very simplistic comfort. Loved the wood burner, candle lights and constant sounds of the babbling stream.Tim and Charlie were the perfect hosts and very attentive to our needs.

i usually ignore surveys but MORE than happy to review Tim's log house - we can't wait to go back!! our dogs had the freedom to roam safely and were in their element, it was wonderful to see.

The bottle of wine ready on arrival was a lovely touch x we didn't have to leave at 11am as Tim said no one was coming in and he said to just leave when we wanted. The weather was fantastic , the area is beautiful . The local pub the cottage inn is a must visit!! My expectations were high for the log house studio and I am pleased to say they were completely exceeded . Thankyou to Tim and Charlie Brown for allowing us to share your very lovely space in the world xx Tracy Savage , Andrea and Laika dog

Lovely relaxing break staying at Tim and Charlie Brown's log cabin. It was cosy, even in October, with the wood burning stove. Tim was really welcoming and Charlie Brown came to visit when we were cooking!

Lovely! Tim was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. Charlie the dog kept us amused all weekend. It was just as we would have liked and expected. Really good to have basics there e.g salt/pepper, oil, jam, shampoo.

We had the best time staying in the Log house studio. Everything you need is provided, and Tim makes you feel very welcome, whilst leaving you to do as you wish. Charlie the dog was an excellent edition, providing an immediate friend, bounding up and down the garden. We loved the inside of the cabin, lots of space to relax and a lovely log fire to keep the cabin cosy and warm. Would absolutely recommend staying here, if you feel like you want to get away from it all. We had fantastic weather which made our daytimes very pleasant, however would be great come rain or shine!!!

We had a fantastic weekend at the Log Studio, Tim was a great host and the studio had everything we needed. We were fortunate with the weather so could enjoy a couple of fires too, it was a lovely relaxing break. Charlie Brown kept our puppy very busy chasing sticks round the large paddock. The studio is a great place to base yourself for the local walks too.

Loved it! First experience of glamping and we are hooked! Beautifully built and maintained log house. Extremely comfortable and warm even at the end of October! Spacious inside and out. Very well and generously equipped. Attractively furnished and decorated ( loved the paintings). Charming and welcoming hosts (man and dog!). Lovely location and lots to see and visit in the general area.

We arrived to a fine welcome from terrier Charlie and charming owner Tim. Every detail had been thought through which made the stay even more special. The cabin is beautiful and incredibly well constructed with an excellent shower and compost loo. Being off grid was great - the log burner and hurricane lamps gave the cabin a very special atmosphere after dark. Tim's garden is also worth a visit alone - he has created something very beautiful. The surrounding countryside is wonderful too although we were write happy to stay put! A truly memorable trip.

Perfect! We arrived quite late a night so it was almost dark and met with a very warm welcome from Tim & Charlie, including a complimentary bottle of wine & card. We we're taken back by the log house & luckily we got there before it was completely dark as it is all candle lit (no electricity). Cooking facilities we're great, the place was very clean (even the compost look & shower area!) and the bed was comfy. It was lovely waking up in the mornings to the sound of a nearby trickling stream. We are certainly going to stay again. A perfect weekend away! Thank you Tim.

We stayed for two nights and wished it was more, the studio was so unique, a real studio with history and stories. Tim's presence was warm, we really felt welcome at the studio and at his home. Charlie the dog is awesome and really well behaved. The facilities were more than sufficient, I felt I could have lived there! We will be back for sure.

We arrived at dusk and were very warmly welcomed by Tim and his wonderfully bouncy dog, Charlie. After a quick lesson in hurricane lamps, woodburning stoves, outdoor showers and woodburning stoves, we were left to relax with in the warmth of the Log House Studio with a bottle of wine and a game of scrabble.
We were initially surprised by the minimal cooking facilities (more than one of us was expecting some kind of oven) but the camping gas stove boiled the kettle perfectly quickly and we were very happy to enjoy hot cross buns toasted on the woodburning stove.
We passed two very relaxing mornings on the veranda enjoying the peacefullness and slow pace of life that the Log House Studio encourages.
We enjoyed a good and relatively easy 3 mile walk to the local pub for a very reasonable but delicious local Welsh lamb pie and cider lunch.
We all agreed that we would have loved to have stayed longer because after all, where else can we relax in our pajamas until 11am, have a hot shower with a beautiful view and watch the sunset around the campfire without worrying about anything!
Thank you Tim and Charlie for a wonderful stay,

"We absolutely loved it. My husband is constantly snowed under with work, my oldest was desperate to go camping where he could light a fire. I didn't fancy canvas, rain and blow up beds. My youngest is easily spooked too. The Log House had no wi-fi, so work couldn't contact my husband and he could switch off, a fire-pit, cosy cover with a real bed, and space for us all so we weren't on top of each other, so my youngest was with us not to get spooked. It was in a beautiful location, and forced a slower pace of life"

"We loved our stay it was so much fun and felt like much more then 4 days. It was a lovely place and everything we wanted from our stay. Tim was a great host and his dog Charlie got on really well with our dogs and made it a very comfortable stay. We were very impressed with everything, the log house itself was beautiful and the shower and toilet were clean and well kept. We will happily go back there again and are planning too."

There was no electricity, the place was not particularly clean, there was a 5 step shower process and no running water, tap, hose or sink. Too expensive for what it was. The dogs at the kennels howled constantly and kept our dog up and vigilant all night.

Response from Canopy & Stars
Hello Amber. Many thanks for sharing this feedback following your recent stay at The Log House Studio. We’re sorry to hear that this stay didn’t meet the your expectations on this occasion. The Log-House Studio is deliberately designed as a rustic, off-grid experience, with no mains electricity and lighting provided by paraffin lamps, tea lights and torches. Hot and cold running water is available to the shower and sink via a solar-powered pump, and guests are briefed on how to operate this on arrival. The nearby kennels are also mentioned in the listing so guests are aware that there may occasionally be some noise. We’re sorry that, on this occasion, the experience wasn’t quite the right fit for you and hope you will enjoy another stay with Canopy & Stars in the future.

Such a beautiful, warm and homely cabin. Tim had thought of so many small details to make us comfortable. A true retreat in nature and beautiful in Autumn!

We loved it, the log house is BEAUTIFUL, very peaceful and it feels very private although it is not far from Tim’s house. We were lucky with the weather and it was a short stay so didn’t get to light the outside fire but the views are lovely, you can see the sunrise and sunset from the cabin. Our dog LOVED the pool that’s been created from the stream and we came for his 10th birthday so it was perfect.

Truly unplugged and peaceful. The log cabin was charming and homely. It was incredible to unplug and relax by candle light. We enjoyed chatting around a fire each evening and watching our dog run around the grounds. A wonderful, calming weekend.

Relaxing stay at the log house studio .Tim the owner is lovely and so is his beautiful dog Charlie brown. Tim has put alot of thought into this place and made our stay enjoyable showing us around the cabin on arrival with added bonus of a welcome bottle of wine and then left us to it .Cosy wood burner,stove inside for cooking if you don't want to use the fire pit,well stocked with kitchen utensils,pots and pans,matches, fire lighters and wood,all the things you need Tim seems to have thought of everything.Lovely hot shower.!
Visits from Charlie made our stay. Quiet with just the sounds of nature.Enjoyed the art around the studio too.Good spot for country walks or exploring local attractions nearest town not far and very nice. Definitely our favorite Canopy and Stars so far.!

What a fantastic stay! Tim was truly wonderful, super helpful and he has built such a beautiful log cabin. A perfect weekend away for friends with everything you needed in the gorgeous Welsh country side. He has thought of everything with that cabin!

We had a lovely stay at Tim's cabin, a really impressive structure that's hand built. It was spacious but cosy and being surrounded by some great artwork made it a unique spot. It's a good opportunity to feel fully off grid and enjoy some downtime by the fire or wandering round the meadows, lovely!

We had the most incredible stay at the cabin on Cwm Farm. The cabin was hand built by the owner Tim and true to the Swedish cabin style. Tim was very accommodating and left a bottle of wine for us on arrival. The location is perfect and deep in the countryside. Just the perfect get away from the hustle and bustle.

We had a wonderful relaxing stay at The Log House Studio and would highly recommend this as a unique off grid experience in a beautiful Swedish cabin in a remote country setting in west Wales … stargazing at night and we were made so welcome by owner Tim and his beautiful dog Charlie Brown.

We had a great time, it was every bit as relaxing as we'd expected. The host Tim was on hand when we arrived to show us around and give us the important tips and tricks. Despite being only a brief visit, we felt duly relaxed from the change of scene and change of pace.

We absolutely loved our stay in The Log House Studio, a truly special and unique experience. Everything was very well thought out by Tim, our host. We loved that we were greeted by Charlie Brown, Tim's dog. He even visited us for breakfast.
The log burner kept us cosy on the chilly winter evenings! We loved playing cards by candle light. We have never seen so many stars in the night sky, absolutely mesmerising! Falling asleep to the sounds of the nearby stream and owls hooting was so relaxing. A real back to nature and back to basics wonderful experience!

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful log cabin. We left all our devices at home and enjoyed playing chess by candlelight, cooking on the log fire and discovering the local villages. The National Botanical Gardens are a short drive away and well worth a day out. Tim was an excellent host and made us very welcome.

We had an amazing weekend at the log house. Tim, the owner was such a lovely host, nothing was too much trouble. Very friendly and welcoming. The log house was absolutely beautiful and the views were great to wake up to. Lots of fantastic pubs close by too with amazing food and really friendly staff. Lots to do around too, we were never bored. Beautiful.

Tim was a great host. What a lovely and very talented guy. Adds such a nice touch that Tim himself made this cabin using literally a saw and a couple more tools, we love those personal touches/stories.
Lovely cabin, real back to basics which is exactly what we were after. Great stuff to do in the area, highly recommend.
Thanks a lot Tim and Charlie!

Lovely lodge, The craftmanship and attention to detail makes this really special. we really enjoyed our stay here, board games, listening to the rain ping of the excellent roof to sitting on the balcony at night with the lamps lit drinking wine. Just perfect. Tim and his dog Charlie are superb hosts and we'd love to return in the future.

A very pleasant stay at a wonderful location in a beautifully made-up log cabin! Tim was very helpful and explained all that we needed to know to enjoy our stay. Despite storm Dennis, we thoroughly enjoyed cosying up by the fire in the light of paraffin lamps. Highly recommend!

Once in a while - and sometimes it feels like a very long while - you find a place that just enchants and inspires you beyond your wildest holiday dreams. Tim's Log House is one of those very special places. A true resting point for body and soul. Tim is a lovely man with a quiet passion for the world he has created and so kindly shares with us poor souls desperate to duck out of the jet-stream of the digital age - and find ourselves again. We stayed for three days and it felt like we had been there much longer... Because we got a genuine chance to decompress and just listen to the wind in the trees and enjoy the warm glow of the cosiest place we have ever stayed in - and long to stay in again. We salute you, Tim! And thank you Canopy and Stars for the introduction.

Lovely stay for a long weekend, back to basics and away from the busy work life. Disconnecting and just taking it all in, we both really loved it, and it was a shame we had to leave.

We had a wonderful time and did not want to leave. The owner, Tim, and his lovely dog Charlie Brown were great hosts. The cabin was beautiful. It was cosy and warm and we instantly felt at home. It was remote enough to feel secluded but it was only a short drive to the local pub and nearby town.

Tim and Charlie Brown were a charming duo who took the best care of us at the lodge. The Cabin is magical, beautifully crafted and decorated. it provided must needed rest bite and it was a real wrench to leave.

This is a idyllic location that is as beautiful as it is peaceful. Wonderful vista's in every direction, with the sound of a bubbling stream as background to bird song. The cabin is adequate in every way and beautifully made. This is back to basic living at its very best, especially if you enjoy cooking on an open fire! The dog was equally as happy, making new friends with Charlie.

We had a wonderful stay at the Log House. Meeting Tim and Charlie Brown was lovely and Tim made us feel very welcome. The house is gorgeous and to us, being in this simple environment was just the ticket. The weather was not great, but what better place to sit out a storm than in nature with a solid roof over your head. A very special place.

We had a very comfortable stay at the Log House, even though it was off grid in February! It's the most luxurious cabin we've stayed in, but also charmingly rustic and simple. Tim has created a beautiful studio there with plenty of space to potter about in and lots to do on a rainy day. He's a very warm host and it is really special to stay in a place that he created lovingly by hand. Every detail has been considered. The wood burner keeps the cabin lovely and warm, and it's more than easy enough to cook on it with the cast iron pans provided. We cooked up a tagine and sketched by candle light. Perfect. There's even a hot shower (that I shared with an enormous spider) - what more could you possibly need! It's important for us to be able to access countryside easily, and there were some good hill walks and castles just a few minutes drive away, even better to find ones next to local crumbling pubs with cracking local ales. Be warned though, opening hours are different to those in the city! We loved our stay and would definitely recommend it. Tim's living the dream and I would suggest anyone should go and check it out for a slice of inspiration. Also Charlie Brown the dog is a dude.

It was truly a beautiful experience. Tim and Charlie the dog came to greet us on arrival, which I really appreciated as we were stuck in traffic and arrived much later than I had previously told Tim. The Log House Studio had a personal meaning to my husband who is Swedish, but I think anyone who stays here will soon develop a personal meaning with the studio! Tim was a great host and struck a good balance between being available for us and also letting us have the privacy. The building itself is truly impressive, surrounded by woodland and a big grassy pitch for my dog to run in. It felt secluded in a very peaceful sense. The studio was very well equipped with everything you could think of, including maps for the local area, ideas for local activities, umbrellas, LOTS of hurricane lamps & tealights which made the evenings very cosy, amazing gas cooker, chairs in all the right places, the beautiful terrace, I could go on...

Our time at the Log House Studio was absolutely fantastic. The cabin was amazing and everything we could have hoped for. Absolutely idyllic with an incredibly helpful host that was always on hand to lend assistance with a lovely dog that ket us company on the rainy days.

We stayed at the log house studio to celebrate an anniversary and it was amazing. Tim (and Charlie the dog) made us super welcome and made sure everything was all set. Tim built the cabin himself and it is a stunning place to spend the weekend. It’s nestled in a remote little village away from everyone. We sat in the veranda and watched the sun go down, then cooked a bbq for dinner. Perfect weekend! Everywhere you look there are personal touches, a truly unique place to stay, we’ll be back!

When we arrived I was blown away by how picturesque the the log house was. Tim and Charlie made us feel right at home and gave us the grand tour, explaining how everything works. Every detail of the log studio added to the experience of staying there, from Tims amazing artwork on the walls to the hurricane lamps that lit up the room, it felt so well put together and homely. At night the lack of light pollution meant that the stars put on a show that was breathtakingly beautiful. We honestly couldn't have asked for more, I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing break away from all the hustle and bustle.

a lovely relaxing couple of days 'off grid'. very warm welcome, and charlie dog was super. Tim was very pleasant and friendly and we felt welcome to share his space, instead of uncomfortable. We felt our dogs were genuinely welcome, and they thoroughly chilled out! lovely lovely studio, very interesting, really well laid out. the shower was hot, the loo was fine, cooking facilites worked well as there were options depending on how you wanted to cook. the meadow was a great axtra space, and the location was really nice for a non beach holiday, lots of rivers, mountains, forests to explore.

It was amazing! Tim must have seen us coming down the lane as he came to greet us with Charlie Brown. He got us all set up and then left us to it mostly, but was always on hand if we needed anything.
The place was amazing. It had everything you needed. I got some serious naps in on the bed, on the mezzanine and in the hammock. The place was so peaceful, it was just perfect and the cabin is beautifully made.

Had the most amazing 2 days at this beautiful idyllic location. Even though we arrived in the torrential rain the cabin provided us with a warm nad very simplistic comfort.

We all agreed that we would have loved to have stayed longer because after all, where else can we relax in our pajamas until 11am, have a hot shower with a beautiful view and watch the sunset around the campfire without worrying about anything!
Thank you Tim and Charlie for a wonderful stay,

"We absolutely loved it. My husband is constantly snowed under with work, my oldest was desperate to go camping where he could light a fire. I didn't fancy canvas, rain and blow up beds. My youngest is easily spooked too. The Log House had no wi-fi, so work couldn't contact my husband and he could switch off, a fire-pit, cosy cover with a real bed, and space for us all so we weren't on top of each other, so my youngest was with us not to get spooked. It was in a beautiful location, and forced a slower pace of life"

"We loved our stay it was so much fun and felt like much more then 4 days. It was a lovely place and everything we wanted from our stay. Tim was a great host and his dog Charlie got on really well with our dogs and made it a very comfortable stay. We were very impressed with everything, the log house itself was beautiful and the shower and toilet were clean and well kept. We will happily go back there again and are planning too."
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.

There was no electricity, the place was not particularly clean, there was a 5 step shower process and no running water, tap, hose or sink. Too expensive for what it was. The dogs at the kennels howled constantly and kept our dog up and vigilant all night.
