Stowes Hill Bodmin Moor (click on images to enlarge)
View through the trees in our woods As Autumn approaches there will be more opportunities to view the stars in a rich velvet sky here at Cider Cottage and up on the nearby moor. It’s great to note that Bodmin Moor has recently been designated an “International Dark Sky Landscape” by the International Dark-Sky Association.
Bodmin Moor International Dark Sky Designation covers the portion of the moor within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty plus a two mile buffer zone around it where Cider Cottage is located.
As an AONB, Bodmin Moor is one of the UK’s most cherished and outstanding working landscapes. Its Dark Sky status is expected to boost tourism and the local economy, especially in the darker spring, autumn and winter months when star gazing opportunities are at their best.

The Milky Way here at Cider Cottage
Here at Cider Cottage we provide lounging outdoor seats and blankets to aid a relaxing evening stargazing. What could be a better escape from life’s constant daily demands than staring at a star studded sky, with a mug of hot chocolate or a glass of wine on hand.
