Lovely sense of space.

The exhibitions are really well curated: plenty to see but not too overwhelming. The whole place is well laid out and child and wheelchair friendly with a general feeling of space. The café has an imaginative menu and is very reasonable priced. It’s the sort of venue you want to return to because you feel comfortable there. A stroll round the delightful gardens afterwards is a must.
