Castle Fine Art, Exeter — Attraction in Exeter

On a recent visit to Exeter we were running a little early for a restaurant reservation and went into Exeter Castle Fine Art to browse. We were welcomed by Chris Hawkins who courteously and expertly led us round the gallery. He was incredibly knowledgeable about all of the artists and the works, happily spending time with us, answering questions and sharing his obvious love of art and for the gallery. At no point did we feel that we were being "sold" to or pressured into buying anything, the visit was a joy from start to finish. I was very drawn to a limited edition called "Loch Lonely" by Lawrence Coulson which I have subsequently purchased through Chris who has been so helpful. I would not hesitate...

I recently visited Castle Fine Art Gallery to view newly released pieces from one artist. I learnt about the history behind these pieces and discussed common knowledge about the artist.

I am very pleased with my purchase, which is pride of place in my entrance hall.

I recommend visiting the gallery if you are interested in learning about the artwork on display and I look forward to seeing new pieces on...

My wife and I have been clients of Castle Fine Art for many years and have bought several pieces. Over that time we have met various staff and have always found them helpful, friendly, informative and above all professional. We visited today and saw Chris and Jo and once again received an excellent greeting, they both work well together and are very knowledgeable with our questions on the new James McQueen art work. It is always a very relaxed atmosphere with plenty of time to browse and never any pressure to buy……Needless to say we couldn’t resist two of the pieces and look forward to their arrival. Once again, many thanks Chris and Jo for all of your time, I’m sure we will see...
