Jupiter Artland

Way out art, way out-of-town

Though well off the beaten-path, Jupiter Artland thrives thanks to its wonderful gardens dotted with modern sculptures and art installations.

Works include many big names from the UK art scene, including Anthony Gormley, Anish Kapoor, Nathan Coley and earthworks specialist Charles Jencks.

Picnicking in the grounds is forbidden, but luckily there's a superb cafe with a varied menu, plus indoor and outdoor seating.
