Visiting questions
Can we leave and come back?
Yes. Your wristband lets you out to the car or the picnic garden and back in as many times as you like on the day.
Is the dome suitable for babies?
Babies are welcome at Our star, which is short and gentle. The darker shows can startle very small children, so sit near the exit.
Do you take POS?
Yes, card, POS and transfer at every till, and Receivly links online.
What happens when it rains?
Everything is indoors except the roof telescopes, which we bring under cover. Telescope nights move to the dome if the sky is cloudy.
