At Tiptoe we are located on the edge of the International Dark Sky Park, this park has the darkest skies in England and the second largest area of protected night sky in Europe. This gives our guests a great opportunity to star gaze. Guests are welcome to star gaze in the garden and grounds at Tiptoe or travel to a local Dark Sky Discovery Site or Stargazing Destination. The best time of year to star gaze is in Autumn and through winter. On a clear night thousands of stars are visible and even the milky way.
Locations that have very low light pollution, provide good sightlines to the sky, and have public access.
