THE Daily Echo has teamed up with St Audries Bay to offer one lucky reader the chance to win a ‘Stargazing Weekend’ for two from the October 4-6.

October is the perfect time for stargazing when the skies darken early, staying pitch black until the moon rises after midnight.

On display you may see the likes of Cassiopeia, Lyra, Cygnus, planets or amazing galaxies!

Your guide for the weekend will be Steve Owens who will be giving a special talk on one evening taking you through a tour of our solar system and beyond. Another evening will be devoted to observing the dark skies of the Quantocks and surrounding area, weather permitting.

It will be a weekend of discovery, wonder, excitement and learning and the prize includes two nights’ dinner and bed and breakfast at the glorious St Audries Bay Holiday Club near Minehead.

For further information visit www.staudriesbay.co.uk, call 01984 632515 or email info@staudriesbay .co.uk.
