Station A sits just below Garn Fawr, looking out to sea, and is moments away from the Garn Fawr National Trust car park, a designated Dark Sky Discovery Site, making this holiday accommodation perfectly placed to go stargazing at any time of the night, whilst enjoying spectacular panoramic coastal views from the armchair, or enjoying one of the many nearby walks during the day.
Stay & gaze - this location benefits from dark skies, relatively low levels of light pollution, is astronomy friendly and suitable for stargazing breaks.
