Book a Stargazing Experience in the Yorkshire Dales
Why not book a stay in one of our charming lodges or our cozy cottage for a night under the stars? Enjoy a peaceful, self-guided stargazing experience in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales – an International Dark Sky Reserve.
This is your opportunity to guide yourself through the constellations, observe the awe-inspiring night sky, and relax in the tranquility of the natural surroundings.
Why the Yorkshire Dales is Perfect for Stargazing:
The Yorkshire Dales National Park is officially designated as an International Dark Sky Reserve, making it one of the best places in the world to experience the wonders of the night sky. With minimal light pollution, the skies are perfect for stargazing, especially during the New Moon phase when the sky is darkest, offering the best views of the Milky Way and distant planets.
Your Stay Includes:
Private Outdoor Patio Areas with each lodge or cottage, ideal for stargazing while sipping a hot drink.
A Dark Skies Hamper featuring everything you need: blankets, a red torch, thermos cups, binoculars, and hot water bottles.
Star-gazing books to help you identify constellations and planets.
Starwalk2 app (free download) for extra guidance while stargazing.
On clear nights, we may even set up our electronic telescope for a closer look at distant planets.
Accommodation Options:
The Hive & The Warren Lodges – perfect for singles or couples.
Ingleborough View Cottage – ideal for a couple or two couples.
Pricing:
Two-night stay: £260
(Includes use of the Dark Skies hamper and all the stargazing essentials)
Additional Information:
This experience is part of the Yorkshire Dales Dark Skies Festival, so you'll be immersing yourself in an even bigger celebration of the night sky!
