The location for anyone wanting to see thousands of stars in a dark sky

There are few places in the UK where you can clearly see the Milky Way and also the Andromeda Galaxy with just your eyes. The Galloway Astronomy Centre is such a place. Located approx 20 miles south of the Internationally recognised Gold Award Dark Sky Park at the Galloway Forest. Our beautiful night sky is free of light pollution making viewing the wonders of the night sky an unforgettable experience. One big advantage of the Galloway Astronomy Centre over other observatories is after stargazing there is no travelling on unlit or icy roads, your warm accommodation is only a short walk away.
