What a fantastic night, Charles is so knowledgeable, He and his wife Alex and son Max were really welcoming. The food was delicious and drink was free flowing. We toasted marshmallows round the fire, then once it was dark we learnt so much about the night sky. My 9 year old grandson wanted to go back the following night. It's brilliant for kids his age as they are catered for too. All in all an experience none of us will forget. We will visit again when next in Murcia.horusky

A friendly welcome by Alex and Charlie and an introduction to their home and animals. We opted to stay the night as we wanted to see the planets in the early hours. The glamping pods were for 4 people but that would have been difficult as one of us was over 6’ and 16 stone so we took the 2 man pod as well. We had a lovely meal cooked by Charlie then all sat around the fire. Charlie set up the telescopes so we could see the moon and star formations. He was very informative and explained the formation of the stars and planets. We were up at 5am to see Saturn and Jupiter. I think next time I would like to study the moon more as we could see more of the craters where the other planets were quite small even on 250 x magnification. It was a very interesting night.
