Starry Night at Askham Hall

A two-night escape inspired by Van Gogh’s The Starry Night

Stay for two nights at Askham Hall and discover the night sky through astronomy, stargazing and art.

Enjoy an evening with astronomy writer Stuart Atkinson with guided stargazing, weather permitting. The following day, explore Askham Hall’s gardens and lunch before joining NOMA Art, who will be hosting a Starry Night art session in the Medieval Barn at Askham Hall, where you can create your own interpretation of Van Gogh’s iconic painting.

With art, astronomy and the wonder of the winter skies at its heart, this magical two-night escape is the perfect way to welcome the festive season. Enjoy the beauty of Askham Hall in winter, discover the night sky, create something special with NOMA Art and savour those first enchanting moments of Christmas.
