Sawday's and Canopy and Stars

'More than just a bed for the night'

Our mission is to make the world a richer place to explore, by seeking out and celebrating special places to stay (and eat) and the fiercely independent and downright lovely people who run them.

We believe in what we do, passionately and honestly. We love all things local and independent, and seek out quirkiness and creativity. We reject the bland, the corporate and the impersonal. We select only the most special places and owners.

We’re a family business, passionate about being a deeply human organisation. We think we have an obligation to behave like a citizen, not a faceless entity – taking seriously our responsibility to the wider community.

We Inspect and Select everywhere we represent. We are making new discoveries all the time. New places and new owners, wonderful people we'd love you to meet.
