Comprehensive Support for Your Glamping Business

From concept to completion, Crown & Canopy helps you plan, design and launch a successful glamping business, grounded in real experience, not theory.

We’ve built and run our own glamping retreats, so our advice on planning, design and land management is practical and tested, not just textbook. Every project starts with the land itself – its ecology and its story – and is shaped around your goals, because no two sites or landowners are the same. The result is thoughtful, considered design that’s built to last, backed by market data and industry insight from our partnership with Canopy & Stars.

Planning and Exemption Support

Not every glamping site requires full planning permission. Depending on your land and the type of accommodation you’re planning, you may qualify for a Paragraph 5 Exemption Licence, which can significantly speed up getting your business off the ground.

Our team can help you understand which route applies to you — from initial research through to full planning applications — so you avoid costly delays.

Our Philosophy

At Crown & Canopy, we believe glamping is more than just a trend — it’s a way to reconnect with nature, celebrate the outdoors, and enjoy life’s simple pleasures without sacrificing comfort. It’s about offering guests the peace of the countryside with the care and quality of a luxury retreat.

For landowners, glamping offers a unique opportunity to diversify, generate sustainable income, and share their landscapes with guests from around the world. When done well, it supports nature restoration, strengthens local communities, and creates benefits for people, places, and the planet — and that’s what we strive to deliver in every project.
