This is a private stargazing experience run exclusively for the voucher recipient plus any family members and friends they wish to invite to share in the experience.

Our stargazing experiences make for ideal birthday and Christmas gifts for anyone with an interest in space or the night sky. Our astronomer will give the background story to each object viewed in the telescope, and make your stargazing adventure a fun and entertaining experience. The 1-hour South Downs stargazing experience is suitable for individuals, couples, families and small groups. It's great for kids too. All children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Voucher recipient may have up to 15 friends and family members share in the experience at no extra charge.
When can the voucher be used?
You have 2-years from date of issue to use the stargazing voucher inside the gift box. We run stargazing experiences from the South Downs all year round, so you're welcome to book for a week night or weekend night anytime of the year. That said we don't run 24 - 31 December, and the voucher recipient will need to book in advance to secure a slot on our busy timetable. We recommend booking 8 - 12 weeks in advance for best choice of dates.
What if it is raining or cloudy?
Naturally cloud and rain is always a threat. When using the voucher to book the stargazing experience we recommend that you choose 2 or 3 nights initially on which you’d be happy for us to run the experience. If it is cloudy / raining on all selected nights then we’ll simply roll the experience forward to an alternative date that works. We can keep rolling the experience forward until we are able to run the stargazing for you.
We had our long-awaited, Covid-delayed star gazing experience at Devil’s Dyke last night and it was well worth the wait. Our guide, Nick, was fantastic - personable, knowledgeable and interesting - and we were lucky enough to have almost perfect viewing conditions. We learnt a lot, saw more stars than we ever imagined possible and even saw another galaxy, which was truly mind-blowing. We loved every minute and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the experience, and the company, to anyone and everyone. Thanks very much to Seb and Nick for the experience and all their help. We hope to be able to do it again one day!
WOW, got this for my 50th as always loved the stars and space and have my own telescope. But didn't know all the info Nick was telling us. He was full of knowledge and amazing facts...blown away by it all, and our whole group was. Nick also had a great sense of humor which made it even better. It has renewed my and everybody in the group's interest again in the night sky again...Thank you so much and lens cap off to Nick..everyone at Stargazing has been brilliant inc Seb;-)
This was a belated birthday present because it was interrupted by the Pandemic and other unexpected issues. Our guide was punctual, knowledgable, personable, entertaining and professional. It was a truly ‘awesome’ evening, where the night sky, the Milky Way, the stars, planets and Solar System cause us all to put life into perspective.
Thank you so much, Nick. We had a wonderful evening.
