Nocturne Weekend – Night Sky Photography at Garvault House

Step away from the noise, slow the pace, and immerse yourself in darkness that truly glows.

Nocturne is an intimate weekend dedicated to night sky photography, hosted at the beautifully remote Garvault House Hotel in the Scottish Highlands. Led by Andrew Allan – Scotland’s Night Sky, this exclusive experience offers the rare opportunity to photograph under some of the darkest skies in the UK, with expert guidance throughout.

Across two carefully curated days and nights, you’ll have the chance to:

• Photograph the Milky Way beneath exceptionally dark Highland skies

• Experience the potential for Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) during your stay

• Receive hands-on night sky photography guidance in a relaxed, supportive setting

• Explore daytime photographic opportunities, including local landscapes, flora, fauna, and wildlife

With exclusive use of Garvault House for workshop attendees, numbers are intentionally limited to maintain a calm, immersive atmosphere and plenty of personal support. Comfortable accommodation, excellent food, and time to connect with fellow photographers are all part of the experience.

Whether you’re looking to deepen your night-sky practice or simply want time and space to create in extraordinary surroundings, Nocturne promises inspiration, connection, and unforgettable skies.
