A fascinating place to visit with stunning views of Wales, Shropshire and beyond. A great visit with my Rotary Club. Probably not suitable for young children as the tour is essentially a lecture and there’s little to interest them - and the planetarium might be a bit scary.

Interesting and informative. Jay was great at explaining everything.
Amazing what he has achieved with no government funding, shocking he is not supported in this important work.
A good 90 minute tour, seeing real meteorites was amazing. Loved the dome experience.

Jay is a fantastic tour guide, we learnt so much in such a short space of time. Our tour lasted approximately 1.5hours, with such a lot of information crammed into it. Our visit has made us go away even more interested in asteroids. Thank you Jay & team, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Jay is one of the most interesting and informative people I’ve ever met. His observatory is a personal quest that is a wonderful working laboratory of science. An inspiration and a real insight into the workings of the universe. The views are also great. As a chartered engineer I meet a lot of “experts” but the manner which he explained his work to us was breathtaking. He also embodies the local community and the project is very positive and powerful 💥. Please go and it’ll be one of the best 2hrs class you’ll have been in. Bravo 👏

We fell upon the sign for the spaceguard just passing through. My husbands idea of heaven so we returned the next day after booking onto a tour.
Firstly the lovely lady in the reception/gift shop so super friendly and helpful.
Jay took our tour and didn't disappoint. Even I who knows little about near earth objects came away with a far greater interest and knowledge. Our favourite bit was the planetarium but were equally thrilled with the knowledge Jay could share with us.
Definitely worth a visit, and would encourage anyone to help them keep doing what they are doing up there.
Thank you!

So much information and so much to see in a unique tour, but very well pitched so that anyone from an enthusiast to someone who doesn’t know what a Near Earth Object actually is would benefit. The Director, Jay, manages to explain things, and answer questions, clearly and succinctly. He has managed to achieve something truly remarkable in The Spaceguard Centre and we’d definitely recommend a visit.

Where do I start??
I know, condescending, rude, lifeless and completely disgusting. The lady on the desk (wife) is lovely upon arrival, she gives you the impression you can ask any question at any time but the problems started when the tour guide/expert (husband) showed up from behind a door. My 10 year old asked if he’s the tour guide and his answer was simply ‘well who else would it be’ !! From then on he was condescending and completely robotic in his approach. As if he’s judged you in his mind as inexperienced amateurs, which most people are on these types of tour. Which is why they go?
Further to another comment i read just before writing this review he also kept looking at my wife’s breasts! Creepy is perfect for his behaviour.
When you read this owners I’m sure you’ll remember who we were. You should be ashamed of yourselves and I encourage anyone who is thinking of going to keep your money and buy a book by Carl Sagan.
My 10 year old instantly switched off and wasn’t interested anymore. I wanted him to engage with it and learn. After all the job of this guy surely is to pass on information. Well no he just wants to impress you with his knowledge and show you up for the lack of yours.
I look forward to your reply to this as no doubt you will defend your attitude and some how blame us for it. And just remember I was there and you know this is all true.
Thank you for discouraging our family from going to another observatory.

If you are at all interested in astronomy, then this place is a must. The tour is extremely informative and lasts for an hour and a half.
Please note, though, that the attraction is NOT suitable for young children. Also, advance booking is essential.
