The Accommodation

Messier
In past times this was the house of the farm manager. We have converted it into spacious accomodation. There are two large bedrooms, a study, a shower and toilet and a kitchen with gas cooker, fridge with mini-bar and our library. The lounge can be used as an additional bedroom if desired. A special feature is the light and airy veranda overlooking a lawn in the garden. This building is also suitable for the holding of meetings.
At the end of a long observation night, your last vista before going to bed will probably be like the one on the picture bottom right.
The Messier rooms are only a few metres from the observatories and the G11 and GP telecope piers. Site plan
 Prices include a (late) breakfast, dinner and a late night snack.
If you would like to stay outside the winter months of May to September - perhaps for some special event in the sky, or perhaps simply to enjoy some relaxing astronomy in a T-Shirt from a deck chair - then we can offer self-catering rates. (Be aware however that Tivoli is in a quite remote location. Bring all your provisions with you or be prepared to drive a long way to shop).

Clear skies - guaranteed at Tivoli? |
|
With the utmost probability you will enjoy clear skies from May until September. During the rest of the year, astronomical conditions may be perfect as well, but you will always have to expect clouds. |
