We arrived to be told it was closed (out of season), but instead of that being that, the staff had a little chat between themselves and decided that it would be OK for us to go and look at everything anyway.

They gave us a book, got the caretaker and he proceeded to take us up to where every piece of art they owned was in storage! Hung on rollers in a vast space in the attic.

No way would they have the space to show everything in the museum, yet they let two tourists have the run of the place. Great fun and a truly once in a lifetime experince. The sort of thing that only the owners and workers of galleries get to do.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15520 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15339 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/15339 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/944 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/944 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/941 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/941 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/945 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/945 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/943 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/943 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/942 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/942
