What visitors say
Excellent gallery in a beautiful listed building. Staff were helpful and good exhibits - check out the current Lucien Freud exhibition.

Absolutely gorgeous place to visit! Came with my toddler and there was plenty for him to do. The kids corner was so comfortable and made our day. The members of staff are really friendly and came out of their way to come say hello and make us feel welcome. Will definitely be recommending and coming back.

Called in this morning not been in for a number of years. Free admission donations welcome. Really nice cafe. The building is easy to access very well set out. Very friendly staff, the art displays are stunning lots of information about the artwork and artist available. Well worth a visit.

Staff in the gallery had no etiquette and were having a very loud conversation despite literally being in an art gallery? It made what should have been a peaceful, contemplative moment, very overwhelming and I couldn't focus the acquaintance's exhibition that i went to see. Left because of them, feeling quite stressed and confrontational frankly. Train your staff better, please.
