This small gallery is in a beautiful (and very posh!!) part of south London. It's a small gallery with a fabulous collection of works from assorted artists, including Rembrandt, Cannaletto and Van Dyck. It's set in a lovely park and there is a nice and very friendly restaurant on where you can get a nice lunch and afternoon tea. Get... More

Went on one of the late nights - quite busy. Excellent special exhibition with great permanent exhibition. Disappointing Cafe was not open (separate enterprise) although there was wine, water (free) and crisps available - but not to be taken into the special exhibition. Cafe is a modern addition and entrance into the gallery was from this via going outside and... More

Visited the gallery for the Painting Canada exhibition - to my surprise, one of the most popular shows they've ever had. As I write, there's only a couple of days left, so it's probably over by now - but it was a revelation, and Tom Thomson will be an inspiration to me for a long time to come. The Gallery... More

Dulwich did not have a cash point when we visited because all the buildings are listed. For me heaven, the gallery is small and atmospheric and usually quiet. Good pubs in Dulwich too....def worth a visit More

A special delight. Worth the effort to get there. It is a real gem, not as overpowering as having the swarms at the National Gallery. More

We went to the gallery, for the first time, and primarily to see the Canadian temporary exhibition. We also went round the whole gallery and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It is a relatively small gallery so you can easily take in everything in 1 day, and it wasn't too crowded when we visited. They do a good add on of... More
