EmailDiscover Saturn's rings, spot Jupiter's moons and enjoy unique wood-fired pizza dining on the edge of Exmoor National Park. This experience really is the full package!
Arrive at Barton Farm and get greeted with your complimentary soft drinks. If the sky is clear your telescopes will be ready for action! Gary and Liz will introduce you to the season's astronomical sky, the constellations, and Greek mythologies dating back to 1400 BCE. You'll even discover how a star's colour indicates its age. If the weather's wet, Liz will host a presentation from Moor Wild's huge barn. Even on a cloudy night, this will be just as mind-blowing!
Next up? Pizza time! With some freshly risen dough in your hands, you'll stretch and stack your ingredients so they're ready for Gary's wood-fired pizza oven. Tuck into tasty hot pizzas as they come out one by one.
Whilst munching away, why not have a play with Moor Wild's Stellarium app and its virtual planetarium? Check out their Dark Skies literature or make friends with the farm animals - calves, pygmy goats, sheep and chickens!
Of course, this evening wouldn't be complete without toasting giant gooey marshmallows and sipping hot chocolate around the firepit. This is a chance to really bond with your hosts and other guests. All experiences will be adapted to the weather. Come rain or shine, expect something equally spectacular!
