It’s a great way to spend an hour and detox from shopping. It’s hard not to be impressed by the immersive projections within the dramatic space that the church provides. I found though that the animations detracted somewhat from the art work. I found the pictures few by without the time to appreciate them. I guess the installation os designed for the social media generation and so doesn’t dwell for more than about ten seconds on anything. Still really enjoyed the experience though.

Set in a beautiful, historical church.

I stayed in the immersion room to see it over again. Truly a relaxing, therapeutic experience. There were deck chairs, benches and floor rugs and cushions to sit on.

I love Van Gogh so it was amazing to pick up a few facts I didn't know while I was there.

This was my 1st experience of VR....and WOW!!! It was truly amazing! I was a bit freaked out at 1st 😂 but wish I had done it twice now. Highly recommend!!

Gift shop was quite expensive but had some beautiful items.

It's a must see. Brilliant. If you love art, go! Don't miss the virtual reality part either. It's an extra £3.00 charge for 11 minutes, but if you want to experience and "see where" Van Gogh lived and painted, do it! I went on a Friday afternoon and it was a good time to go. One thing: choose you're time wisely. There can be young children about running up and down with loud voices and can be very distracting. Choose a family time or a time when children might not be around. There is a small, but wonderful gift shop at the end. The staff are very helpful and go out of their way to help you.

Fantastic! If you like Van Gogh, go! If you enjoy art, go! If you're an arty crafty person, go! And if you enjoy VR there's a bit of that too (the virtual reality was my favourite part!)

It was such a great experience. Especially I really enjoyed my time in exhibition area. Well wort it.
How sadly although he produced around 900 marvellous paintings he was only able to sell 1 painting during his life time.

This is a real thought provoking exhibition. I came away with a great appreciation for Van Gogh and his dialogue in art. The VR experience is well worth the add on too.

Stunning and informative, an experience I shall repeat. Feeling part of Van Goghs painting is incredible...like an Alice in Wonderland happening

My wife and I had a lovely visit, looking into the mind of the artist Vincent van Gogh, as displayed by this exhibition. The VR trip transports you back in time, while the Immersive Experience was like walking through one of his paintings. Totally recommended, so very worth visiting.
