Fantastic art centre with lots of amazing activities to take part in. Interesting exhibition and competition on at the moment. Fabulous cafe with amazing home cooked food- definitely recommend the bacon sandwich which was so large I couldn’t get it all in my camera frame 😂. Great gift shop, prints for sale, library and information about the area. They also have a thriving events calendar which I was able to take part in (viola and piano concert) good location in town and has plenty of parking. Highly recommended!
