We’ve teamed up with Matthew, a Galloway forest Dark Sky Ranger to offer some special stargazing experiences. Stay in our luxury glamping pod, and learn all about the night sky, with practical experiments, stories and facts. View the planets. the milky way or the moon’s craters with the use of professional astronomy binoculars. We can also offer you photography tuition during your stay, with Mark being on hand to teach you how to create stunning astrophotography images of the Milky Way. Who knows you might capture a shooting star or an image of the Northern Lights to take home with you.

We offer these on specific dates of the year, usually during an astrological event such as a meteor shower, full moon or a comet pass. You will have full use of our glamping pod and facilities on site during your stay. So you can relax and unwind in the peace and quiet by day, and once the stars come out the dark sky tour commences.

His tour will last for around 2.5 hours. Leaving you to then gaze up at the stars with your newfound knowledge of the night sky, and stories to tell your friends when you get home.
