Stay & Gaze Package

Amberley Castle is nestled within the heart of the South Downs National Park, enjoying a privileged position in one of the UK's official international dark sky reserves. With exceptionally low levels of light pollution, the castle offers some of England's clearest night skies, creating the perfect setting to experience the beauty of the cosmos.

As darkness falls, the castle grounds become an extraordinary natural observatory, where countless stars, constellations and celestial wonders reveal themselves far from the glow of city lights.

Enhancing the experience is the castle's resident astronomer, Dr John Mason MBE, a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and former President of the British Astronomical Association, with decades of experience inspiring audiences with his passion for astronomy.
