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

We’re pleased to welcome back Geoffrey, this time in a solo art show.
After leaving school in 1972 with an O level in art, Geoffrey painted only occasionally and purely for fun. Then, in 2001, on his first painting holiday in the South of France the wonderful sunshine and shadow inspired him to take watercolours more seriously.
Today he works mainly from his own photographs, sketches and memory creating watercolours in his home studio and making his own frames. A former head gardener at Olantigh in Wye Kent, Geoffrey now works there part-time giving himself much more time to paint.
Since his very first painting holiday 25 years ago, Geoffrey has sold hundreds of paintings and his watercolours hang in collections all over Europe and the UK.
Will Dickinson Artist - Wood Turner/Sculptor
Throughout all his work, Will explores man’s relationship with materials. As a self-taught woodturner, he uses traditional methods to combine wood and found materials – demonstrating the adaptive and adoptive nature of wood while making us aware of how it integrates into our homes and environments. In addition, through a conceptually driven practice, Will exposes each material’s individual identity through the alteration of function, form, purpose and origin.

Isabel Dickinson - Ceramic and Textile Artist
Excited by colour, texture and pattern, Isabel is influenced by her organic surroundings. Her work is mostly wheel thrown ceramics, producing decorated vases and pots using underglazes as an integral part of the decoration alongside textural impressions using natural plants materials. The intriguing addition of felted textiles is currently being explored, with the connectivity of stitch.
