You know those days when you feel like the world is on your shoulders? We do! but we have a simple remedy for lifting that weight here at Tom’s Eco Lodge. We wrap up warm, and step outside to look up into the vast universe of a night sky. Suddenly you realise..nothing is on your shoulders any more! It is truely breathtaking.
What is the most important thing you need for star gazing…? A beautifully clear sky with no light pollution form big towns and cities is a good place to start…
The Isle of Wight boasts one of the most ‘un’ light polluted area’s in the whole of the UK. At certain times of the year we have nights when you can count hundreds of shooting stars, and as we enter the ‘most romantic month’ of the year - when better to brush cheap jerseys up on your knowledge of de all things ‘twinkly’?
Our friends over at My Isle of Wight have done the hard work for you. There is world! even a beautiful stop motion video of Freshwater Bay at night showing you JUST how many shooting stars we have.
BBC Star Gazing Live has lots of tips too! Here is how to make your own telescope! Perhaps you could bring cheap jerseys it with you on your holiday to Tom’s Eco Lodge?
We at Tom’s Eco Lodge are also planning to take part in BBC Star Gazing Live and will be organising a family event for all to enjoy at the Lodges (out of season)
Watch this space…. (when you are not watching the stars that is!)
