Throughout the year we host regular art and craft exhibitions and other events in the cow barn gallery, workshop studio and Great Barn in our ancient courtyard. These buildings have been sympathetically renovated to create bright gallery spaces while retaining their original rustic and historic features

Our summer exhibition of landscape paintings in the main Vineyard Gallery, features the work of two well-known local artists:
Sue Houghton
A Kent based contemporary artist, Sue works in oils and acrylics from her studio in the Kent countryside and draws inspiration from her love of the sea and local coastal scenes. The ever-changing moods and dynamic energy of the waves, the tranquillity of calm waters and golden sunsets and vast stormy skies feed her work.
Sue takes joy from seeing a client drawn to one of her paintings because it resonates for them too; and hopes that her work captures her enthusiasm and passion for art, and her delight in colour and experimentation.
She has exhibited in galleries throughout Kent, and annually holds her own art show. Her work is framed in hand made solid oak frames.
Anna Clement
Anna is a Kent born artist who paints at her home in Sevenoaks. Although not formally trained, she has painted since childhood, being taught initially by her artist Grandfather. She has also has painted for many years with the Stone Street Art Group benefiting from their renowned group of visiting tutors as well as the skills and experience of other artists in the group.
Anna’s uplifting work in acrylic and oils covers an eclectic mix of subjects using a distinctive, colourful and expressive style that infuses her paintings with the beauty and joy she finds in her subjects.
Her work has been exhibited extensively in shows and galleries throughout Kent and Sussex.
Exhibiting in our Small Gallery, Khoa Mahon originates from the small rural town of Chau Doc, in South Vietnam’s Mekong Delta. She grew up immersed in nature and the traditional crafts which now inform her work as a professional artist and jewellery maker.
