Moore's Arch

Contemporary art meets Surrey countryside in this independent gallery space that's become something of a local talking point. Moore's Arch showcases rotating exhibitions of modern and contemporary works, often featuring emerging artists alongside more established names. The gallery itself occupies a converted building that retains plenty of character, with high ceilings and natural light that really lets the artwork breathe.

Art enthusiasts will find plenty to appreciate here, particularly those interested in discovering new talent before they hit the big London galleries. The exhibitions change regularly, so there's always a reason to return. That said, it's quite a niche appeal - families with young children might find it a bit dry unless there's a particularly engaging installation on show.

Located just outside Woking, it's well positioned for anyone staying at nearby Warren Farm Home Park or Horsley Camping and Caravanning Club Site. The gallery makes for a lovely cultural break between outdoor activities, especially on a rainy afternoon when you need somewhere to duck into. Worth checking their current exhibition online before making the trip, as the quality and appeal can vary quite dramatically depending on what's on display.
