Stargazing & Planetarium Experience Weekend Breaks 

Coll & the Cosmos
2026 dates TBA, please email if you'd like to be notified when new dates are released

Coll & The Cosmos is a stargazing weekend break on the Isle of Coll that makes the most of the island’s incredible dark skies. The break has been specifically designed to appeal to as wide an audience as possible. No prior knowledge of astronomy is needed; we'll bring you the best of the night sky in a way that is fun and easily understandable.

Coll & The Cosmos is a collaboration between Coll Bunkhouse and Cosmos Planetarium. We use state of the art technology to deliver an amazing stargazing learning experience in a fantastic location. 

No other stargazing short break in the UK offers as wide a range of astronomical equipment (up to 18" telescopes), practical hands on instruction in using telescopes and developing observing techniques. All combined with the awesome experience of time inside our fully digital, cinematic, immersive planetarium.

Cosmos Space Academy 'Family Friendly Stargazing' New Dates TBA
A family version of our popular stargazing short breaks, running during school holidays, suitable for all ages. Millions of children will never have the opportunity to see the Milky Way with their own eyes due to light pollution. You can on Coll! The bright band of the Milky Way is easily visible along with many other amazing celestial objects from comets to far flung galaxies. Join us on a voyage of discovery.
