Open Wednesday to Sunday 10am to 5pm, hut bookings are from 10am to 4.45pm. Entry is £12.50 per person.

Visitors are able to enjoy the Gallery & Gallery Cafe without entry to the Sculpture Park. Described as one of the most beautiful & unique sculpture parks in the United Kingdom, Sculpture by the Lakes marries the soft beauty of nature's wild river landscape with the more formal presentation of monumental outdoor sculpture. It is that combination of art and landscape that inspires Sculpture by the Lakes.

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.
