Print Room Ltd

Print Room Ltd sits just outside Redhill and is exactly what it says on the tin - a working print studio and gallery space where you can actually watch the craft happening. The whole operation feels refreshingly unpretentious. You'll see presses running, smell the ink, and watch printers at work if you time it right. The gallery side showcases contemporary printmaking, which ranges from proper experimental stuff to more traditional lithography and screenprinting.

It's not a massive space and you won't spend hours here unless you're seriously into the medium. But that's rather the point. This is for people who actually care about how prints are made, not casual browsers after a quick cultural hit. The work on display changes regularly, so it's worth checking what's on before you visit. If you're staying at nearby Alderstead Heath Caravan and Motorhome Club Campsite, Print Room makes a sensible afternoon stop without eating up a whole day.

Access details and admission fees aren't entirely clear from their setup, so ring ahead first. Worth the effort though - it's the sort of specialist place that rewards a bit of forward planning. Print enthusiasts will genuinely enjoy it. Everyone else should perhaps save the visit for when there's a show that catches your eye.
