Experience this… stargazing at Rudding Park

Start your new year with a zen-like experience at the picturesque Rudding Park in Harrogate, which this month will turn in to a haven for stargazers. Relax under the night sky and gaze at the stars with the Roof Top Starlight Spa Experience or enjoy an overnight Stargazing Experience.

The spa experience includes access to the indoor swimming pool, juniper log sauna, bucket shower and Roof Top Spa and garden, where guests can bathe under the stars in the warm waters of the outdoor spa bath and hydrotherapy pool, before relaxing with a glass of prosecco.

On clear nights, the Roof Top Spa telescope can offer a peek across the night sky with views of comets, star fields, star clusters, bright galaxies and planets.

The Starlight Spa Evening includes a 50-minute bespoke spa treatment followed by the ultimate chill out in the Visual Zone with its mesmerising stargazing time-lapse footage or a nap in the Sleep Zone with its starlight ceiling.

An overnight Stargazing stay includes an informative Introduction to Stargazing session with astronomer Richard Darn. In the Rudding Park cinema, guests can learn how to guide themselves around some of the more easily recognisable features of the night sky including constellations, aurorae and star clusters before venturing outside to observe the night sky and try their hand at stargazing.
