Places like this need supporting as when they are gone they are gone. Only found this museum as we passed it on the way to our hotel. Owned and run by a genuinely nice man whose name is Frank and who owns all the exhibits. An amazing collection of old cars and motorbikes which both look and smell incredible. Took me back to simpler times that no longer exist. If you are in the area take time to visit this tardis. £7 entrance fee is worth it for what you are helping to preserve.

Red Propeller Gallery was founded by Sarah & David Anslow in 2006 and is renowned for showing a more outré strand of contemporary work. The Gallery has played a major role in seamlessly merging Urban Fine Art with Contemporary Fine Art. It was one of the first Urban Art Galleries to hit the street - just as the phenomena was gathering speed. Red Propeller continues to identify and showcase challenging and thought-provoking pieces by the best emerging Artists working today - all successfully working towards sealing their place in Contemporary Art history.

I manage The Reuben Lenkiewicz Art Gallery in Teignmouth Arts Quarter. The painter Robert Lenkiewicz was my father & I have a intimate experience of his life & work. I exhibit and promote my fathers work through exhibitions, talks and events. I also specialise in buying & selling my fathers paintings, drawings and prints.

Have been to the gallery several times as it’s the best place in the country to see Robert Lenkiewicz’s brilliant paintings and high quality prints. Reuben Lenkiewicz, Roberts son, was responsible for setting up and now running the gallery. His knowledge of the history of Roberts unfolding genius makes a visit such a memorable and fascinating experience. Just by talking with Reuben himself is an enlightening experience worth going for. For anyone who is interested in Roberts work or figurative art can’t help to enjoy a visit. I know that I will visit again as the created atmosphere is such that it calls me back time and again. You’ll enjoy it too.

Dartmouth manages to retain many of its historic buidings and the museum is housed in one of the oldest at the start of the Butterwalk. Packed full of pictures and information on the development of the town and, of course, its maritime history it is a must see treasure trove of information.
