It is very nice, that Bideford has such a good little gallery.There is always a variety of good exhibitions, some local and some from further afield. The exhibitions change regularly, so there is always something new to go and look at. There is a little area upstairs, showing you some of Bidefords history. There is a very pleasant cafe, which serves some delicious meals, and a lovely little gift shop which also sells locally made crafts.
This is a great little gallery. They have some really good exhibitions from artists all over the country, and also local ones. Its free to enter, and if you go upstairs you can learn about Bideford and its history. There is a shop which sells quirky giftcards, and gifts, and local artists are also able to display and sell their work here. When you've had a good wander round, treat yourself to some cake and coffee in their cafe. A great rainy day activity.
