Discover one of the most atmospheric stargazing events in the Yorkshire Dales with a magical winter escape at Yorebridge House. Set within a region celebrated for its exceptionally dark skies, this exclusive experience combines expert-led stargazing, firelit food and a peaceful overnight stay in the heart of the Dales.
Perfect for couples, nature lovers and anyone curious about the night sky, this Yorkshire Dales stargazing event offers a rare opportunity to see the stars at their very best.
The Yorkshire Dales are internationally recognised for their low light pollution and expansive night skies, making them one of the finest locations for stargazing in the UK. On a clear winter’s night, constellations, planets and distant galaxies come vividly into view.
This carefully curated stargazing event in the Yorkshire Dales is designed to be relaxed, welcoming and accessible, whether you are a complete beginner or already fascinated by astronomy.
Arrive during the afternoon and settle into your accommodation before night falls. Warm drinks will be waiting as the fires are lit and the evening begins.
As darkness descends, gather around our outdoor firepits for a relaxed, bonfire-style supper. Enjoy hearty seasonal dishes created for winter evenings, toast marshmallows over open flames and soak up the glow of the fire under the night sky.
Once warmed and well fed, step into the darkness for a guided stargazing session led by a local astronomer. Learn how to navigate the night sky, identify constellations and planets and, weather permitting, observe deep-sky objects through telescopes provided on the night. No prior experience is needed.
After your stargazing experience, retreat to your room for a peaceful night surrounded by true darkness and countryside stillness.
Wake to a relaxed breakfast the following morning before departure.
Enjoy an overnight stay at Yorebridge House, a bonfire-style supper by the firepits, expert-led stargazing session and a hearty Yorkshire breakfast the following morning.
