THE EDENBRIDGE GALLERIES

The Edenbridge Galleries sit right in the heart of town, and they're worth a proper look if you're staying at one of the nearby glamping spots or caravan parks. The space showcases local and contemporary work - paintings, sculpture, occasional installations - and it has the feel of a genuine community hub rather than some polished London offshoot. You'll spend anything from forty minutes to two hours here depending on what's on and how engaged you get with the pieces.

It's the kind of place that appeals more to art-minded visitors than to families with restless toddlers, though older kids with an interest in making things would probably find it worthwhile. The staff are friendly and actually know the artists' work, which makes a change. Free entry, which is always welcome when you're exploring a small market town.

If you're based at Luna Domes or Long Acres and fancy a half-day in Edenbridge, combine this with a wander round the high street and lunch at one of the local cafes. The galleries mark a real effort by the town to punch above its weight culturally. It's not going to blow your mind, but it's exactly what a regional gallery should be - accessible, unpretentious, and genuinely interested in showing work that matters locally. Worth the detour if you've got the time.
