We are still taking bookings for our Stargazing Supper at Exford Bridge Tearooms on Thursday 11th December 2025. Why not treat yourselves and come and enjoy the Dark Sky Reserve at the most special time of year?

Stargazing in the Dark Sky Reserve at Exmoor’s Dark Sky Hub. There is no better place to stargaze than in Exmoor on a clear, moonless night.

As many of you know my dad passed away on Thursday afternoon after a long illness. His death however came very suddenly and was not expected. As a family, we have been thrown into chaos and the world seems rather strange at the moment. I am trying to fulfil bookings where I can and will contact those that I need to cancel in good time. Please bear with me as obviously I have to be with my family (especially my mother) at this exceptionally sad time....😥

Our venue for the Exmoor Dark Sky Festival this evening was Triscombe Farm where we had a "Picnic Under the Stars" - lovely time spent with a group of staying guests who came from places as far away as South America and the Netherlands....

What a wonderful stroke of luck for our guests this evening.... we finished our talk at Exford Bridge Tearooms and the skies cleared miraculously after very heavy rain.... all guests suited and booted quickly to get out onto the Dark Sky Reserve and hey presto! Stars in abundance! Some of our guests were very emotional at seeing so many and especially so when using the binoculars... a night to remember.... here is a pic of us leading the walk in darkness towards the moor, albeit for the torch! Lights out though when we got there!
