Little Seed Field Glamping
Castiles Farm, Ripon, North Yorkshire, HG4 3PU
Enjoy a stargazing break to Nidderdale and experience the tremendous dark skies above Little Seed Field Glamping site with an expert astronomer from Go Stargazing.
This event takes place when there is no bright Moon in the sky. You’ll experience fantastic views of the Milky Way and observe incredible objects tens of millions of light-years distant through large telescopes.
There’ll also be astronomy presentations suitable for beginners and a telescope workshop — if you have your telescope, bring it along for advice and tips. Bring your camera, too, for some astrophotography tuition!
Bookings include a delicious two-course meal on Saturday evening and hot chocolate and marshmallow toasting kits for every cabin! Also included is a visit to the nearby Lime Tree Observatory and Planetarium where you’ll enjoy a virtual tour of the Universe in their immersive planetarium dome!
