Discover the Dark Skies of Cumbria & the Lake District

Step into one of the UK’s most stunning stargazing locations and capture the wonders of deep space with your camera, long lens, or telescope.

Under these beautiful dark skies, we get to witness:
Distant galaxies colliding millions of light years away
Giant spiral galaxies containing billions of stars
Beautiful nebulae, stellar nurseries, where stars are born
Comets, meteors and the Milky Way. 

Being able to use mounts that match the rotation of Earth
allows us to use our camera’s to collect faint light from millions,
sometimes billions of light years away and use this faint light to
build up an image from many exposures. 

It can be a complicated and daunting area of photography.  Let
us help you understand and learn the basics to get you going
with your astrophotography

This hands-on astrophotography session will teach you everything you need to know — from setting up tracking mounts to mastering the techniques and tricks that make deep space images truly breathtaking.

Bring your own telescope, or simply arrange to use one of ours — we’ll make sure you’re fully equipped for an unforgettable night under the stars.

Spaces are limited, so book your place today and unlock the secrets of the universe through your lens!
