What a lovely evening! Such a relaxed atmosphere and you completely switch off doing the painting. Would definitely recommend it.

Our second visit to this fabulous place. Last time, we painted our wooden ducks. This time, we have painted pottery ornaments. It is fantastic fun and we get tea and cake! Brilliant fun, just the best. Keep going guys we will be back soon.Ps I come into Arty Boat everytime I’m down from Kent. Roughly 6-8 weekly 😂

Me and my son went to arty boat today, I painted a bear and my son painted a duck, we had an amazing experience. The staff were very helpful (giving my son a hand to paint his duck) and made sure everyone was happy.We will be returning again soon

Our group of 4 had a fantastic time at Arty Boat yesterday. We were celebrating two of our group who had gotten married earlier that day and Arty Boat were incredibly accommodating and communicative.We had a wonderful time painting the pieces we’d chosen and found it to be such a fun, therapeutic and wholesome 3 hours of our afternoon.The two members of staff were lovely and made everyone feel very comfortable, while also being experts in how to improve your piece.We left full of joy (and delicious cake) with great souvenirs of our day. We would all wholeheartedly recommend Arty Boat to anyone looking for something to do in Exmouth and beyond!

Just visited this lovely shop, the man and woman there were lovely, the afternoon tea was great value for money, all the sandwiches and cake were amazing, and loads of it, we were a group of 5 adults and 4 children, we all painted something and had a great time, I would recommend this place and we will be going again.

Had the best time at ArtyBoat painting a duck with my sister. The experience was so good and so worth the price! The man in there made the experience so good and couldn’t of been kinder and more helpful. Also the cake I had was beautiful! We are so so happy with our ducks and cannot wait to go again sometime!

Had a fabulous and relaxing few hours painting my duck!The owners were friendly and welcoming, the cake delicious 👌We were walked through the process and given a wide range of paints to choose from plus a number of photos for inspiration.You can take your items away the same day but they were also very accommodating in allowing me to collect the next day (rather than carrying around).Would fully recommend a visit!

Had the very best time at Arty Boat Duck painting. 3 hours of creative time with lots of support if needed. Which it was. Lovely tea and cake which made it extra special and lots of laughs too . Loved the ducks we painted and they are pride of place at home…booked again for decoupage can’t wait to learn this and have more delicious cake and fun. Thank you so much so book, book now !! You won’t be disappointed
