Discover life above and beneath your feet at our Nature & Star Hub
For nature lovers, you'll find a bird sound station outside to help you identify different songs. Inside the Hub you'll learn about the birds and animals that call Sutton Bank home. If you're patient, sit and wait for wildlife to use our dipping pond and feeders in the surrounding woodland. It's been known to attract the elusive turtle doves.
Did you know our Centre is located in an International Dark Sky Reserve?
Learn about the changing skies throughout the year on our rotating dark skies drum. Those wanting to get a true sense of our darks skies, book onto a stargazing event and spend an evening with an expert.
You can book onto one of astronomer Richard Darn's or Large Outdoors' stargazing events at Sutton Bank at other times of the year.
The Hub is open to the public daily (10:30am-4pm) unless hired out for events (any closures will be signed on the approach to the building).
Find out more to hire the Hub for your own private use.
The Nature and Star Hub is part of the Sutton Bank National Park Centre: Gateway to the North York Moors project, funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development: Europe investing in rural areas.
