Dimbola Museum & Galleries

Dimbola Museum & Galleries, originally home to pioneering Victorian photographer, Julia Margaret Cameron, was saved by from demolition by a band of volunteers and enthusiasts. It’s now home to a museum and galleries on the Isle of Wight.

The Freshwater location has stunning views making it easy to understand why Cameron and her husband were based here.
