Delamore Arts and Sculpture Park is based at Cornwood in South Devon. Each summer we bring art and the public together within this idyllic setting on the fringes of Dartmoor.

The imposing house was built in 1859 for Ann Praed and George Parker when they were married. The gardens which are rarely open to the public were laid out at a similar time with plantings of newly imported rhododendrons and magnificent trees. Seen at their best during May, they are an ideal backdrop for sculpture large and small, from Henry Moore Foundation prize winners to emerging artists.

The light rooms make a superb gallery for paintings and indoor sculptures. Open every day in May, come and browse and perhaps buy one of the many pieces created by local, national, and international artists.

Wonderfully, last year over 8,000 visitors came to see the art, sculpture park and gardens. We are open every day in May to view over 120 paintings in the ballroom and over 100 sculptures around the park and garden and down towards the lake.

We always welcome applications by artists to exhibit, and our aim is for 'fresh art by living artists'. If you wish to be considered please send/email images of your work to us at any time.

We will again be using the cafe in the Old Kitchen courtyard and offering a chance to refresh and recharge with homemade soup, sandwiches, cakes and ice cream

Dogs are allowed in the lower fields and lake but not in the main garden or sculpture park. Unlimited car parking. Entrance fee for 2012 will still remain at £5 per adult and under 16's free. Opening hours 10.30am to 4.30pm every day in May including Bank Holidays.
