Visitors of all ages are welcomed to this award winning art gallery. Housed in a grade I listed Robert Adam mansion, surrounded by 'Capability' Brown landscaped parkland, Compton Verney offers a memorable day out.

Be enthralled by an exciting changing programme of exhibitions, which this season includes Gainsborough’s Landscapes: Themes and Variations, Into the light: French and British painting from Impressionism to the early 1920s, Flight and the artistic imagination, and Tapestry: Weaving the century at Dovecot Studios 1912 - 2012.

Explore artworks from around the world including: paintings from the 'Golden Age' of Italian art, Germanic art 1450-1650; British portraits featuring work by Sir Joshua Reynolds and Tudor portraits; Chinese bronzes; the UK's largest collection of British Folk Art and a collection of work by textile designer Enid Marx.

Enjoy a refreshing break in the waitress service café or enjoy a picnic outside.
