Spring Astronomers week April 5th to 10th 2024

Haw Wood Farm will be hosting an Astronomy week from Friday 5th to 10th April 2024.

This years Spring event will be held during the Easter school holiday.
We hope to be able to attract more families and those with an interest in astronomy during this time but we will still adhere to our dark sky ettiquette.

Pitches will be available to book online.

Haw Wood Farm has been named a ‘Dark Sky Discovery Site’ due to its unusual lack of light pollution.

We have naked eye visibility 5.73, averted 5.99 and a best SQM reading of 21.75.

Very few areas of the UK have this award which makes us the perfect place to combine a weekend break with some top quality star gazing.

We welcome both visual astronomers and imagers but we will try to keep the two in different areas of the site to avoid any issues with light pollution 

If you would like to book during this week please email info@hawwoodfarm.co.uk or call 01502 359550.
