Ever dreamed of watching a meteor shower from a luxe off-grid cabin with an actual astrophysicist as your guide? This May that dream becomes a reality as stargazing meets slow living in Tasmania’s wild south. For just two nights, a lucky duo will experience the Eta Aquariids meteor shower through the telescope of ex-Bachelor and astrophysicist Matt Agnew, deep in the Tasman Peninsula wilderness.

Set against Tassie’s famously pristine night skies, experience lands right in the middle of the meteor shower’s annual peak, from 5–7 May. With Earth cruising through the dust trail left by Halley’s Comet, the result is a stunning show of up to 50 meteors flashing overhead each hour. This year, you'll get to witness it all from a remote eco stay beside McHenry Distillery, known for its sweeping skies and moody landscapes.Image Credit: Booking.com | Dearna Bond

Your host for the weekend? Dr Matt Agnew—yep, the former Bachelor and scientist—will be guiding the sky tour with a high-powered telescope and serious cosmic smarts. Over two days, guests will settle into slow mornings and starry nights, all the good stuff you need to escape the chaos of everyday life.

Expect meals whipped up by local chefs and producers, showcasing the best of the island’s food and wine scene. You'll also receive a visual souvenir of your sky-watching session courtesy of a dark sky photographer—how good. The trip includes return flights, a rental car, and a stay in the off-grid cosmic cabin, surrounded by lush forest. In between meteor gazing, there’s time to explore the Port Arthur Historic Site and spot Tassie devils and other native wildlife at the nearby Unzoo.

It’s no coincidence this cosmic stay taps into a growing trend: 'noctourism'. A recent travel insights report by the legends at  reveals more Aussies than ever are travelling to experience the clarity of night skies untouched by city lights. And, more than half are planning to visit a dark sky destination this year.

Tasmania, with its raw beauty and clean air, is quickly becoming one of the best places on Earth to experience these celestial events, according to Booking.com. Long autumn nights and the island’s minimal light pollution make it the perfect setting for slow, mindful travel—and the Eta Aquariids are just the beginning.

According to Agnew, reconnecting with the universe is exactly what many of us are craving. “I was over the moon to be invited to host this stellar stargazing experience,” he says. “More people are travelling to witness the wonders of the universe, and this unique stay is the perfect chance to slow down and soak up the Eta Aquariids meteor shower. I can’t wait to guide the guests through the stars.”

The Cosmic Cabin will be available to book from 17 April at midday AEST, open to one traveller and their guest on a first-come, first-served basis.
