Stonehaugh enjoys some of the darkest skies in England so it's a fantastic place for Stargazing. Rural Northumberland has very low levels of light pollution which results in very dark skies.
This is why the Northumberland National Park and Kielder Water & Forest Park have been designated as an International Dark Sky Park.
The International Dark Skies Association (IDA) has given the park its “Gold Tier” status - its very highest level of award.
