Angel with Horn

The Angel with Horn is a gallery tucked away near Driffield in East Yorkshire, and it's one of those places that rewards a bit of curiosity. The work on display here has real character - this isn't polished commercial gallery territory, but rather something altogether more personal and distinctive. What you'll find depends on the exhibition, but the space itself feels genuine, the sort of place where the art matters more than the surroundings.

It works best for people who like discovering things off the beaten track rather than following a guidebook. Art enthusiasts will appreciate the independent spirit of it, and if you're the type who gets bored with the usual high street galleries, there's something refreshing about seeking this out. Families with older kids interested in contemporary work might enjoy it too, though younger children would probably struggle with the pace.

Visit during daylight hours and allow an hour or so - enough to look properly without feeling rushed. Opening hours and admission aren't confirmed online, so ring ahead before making the trip from Driffield itself.

If you're based at one of the nearby parks - Thorpe Hall Cottages just 2.8 miles away, or the coastal options like Parkdean Resorts Barmston Beach further out - this makes a decent cultural break from beach and holiday park routines. It's the sort of spot that proves you don't need major attractions to have a worthwhile afternoon out.
