International Dark Sky Designation for Bodmin Moor

Posted on: 10th July 2017

International Dark Sky Designation for Bodmin Moor is exciting because it is the 1st Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to get the recognition; previously only National Parks had received the designation. I very much hope that, on the back of the Penwith Landscape Partnership, organisations might agree to go for this for West Penwith Moor. It is great for wildlife, star gazers, tourism and our well-being.
