Kelling Heath Holiday Park
Weybourne, Holt, Norfolk, NR25 7HW
The North coast of Norfolk is well renowned for its dark skies, and Kelling Heath is ideally situated to take advantage of them. This special event organised in collaboration with Birmingham Astronomical Society and Kelling Heath Holiday Camp takes place over several nights around a new moon when the skies are at their darkest. Note that this event will have some fairly strict rules governing the use of white light, this so that everyone can make the most of their time under the starry skies.
Please note that this has already taken place on 09/11/2023
