Very helpful. Art is of high quality. Would recommend Martello Alley to anybody looking for a piece of art.

I experienced a lovely shop in an alley that reminded me of nineteenth century London. The owner showed me pieces that met my taste and was extremely informative about the artist. It is a pleasure to shop in Martello Alley and I plan to return when I am again in Kingston.
Thank you! I am pleased that people are enjoying the makeover of the alley. Please visit again soon!
A wonderful treat down a Kingston alleyway with lots of interesting local art work and crafts. Definitely worth a detour when visiting Kingston.
Thank you Michael! Please visit again soon!
Delightful and great range of art with plenty of affordable options for gifts and so friendly
Thank you! I am happy you enjoyed your visit!
Last year we found it just out of the blue on one of our walks. David, the owner, was just in the process of setting up and he gave us a tour and filled us in on what his vision for the place would be. We stopped again this year and "wow" what a lovely place he has made it. I purchased something for my daughter's bedroom in her new house. I hope she likes it. She is sorting all her clothes out and putting things away. Here are some photos I took of Martello Alley. Anyone visiting Kingston needs to put this down as a "must see".
Wow! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review! I am pleased that we were able to help you find something for your daughter's bedroom. Also, my sincere apologies for replying so late. I think that review notifications have ended up in my spam folder. I will make an effort to check more often. Again, thanks so much! One thing though - you mentioned photos but I cannot see any. Please share them with us on our Facebook page. We would love to see them!

Answer: Hi Steven. Just getting set up on Sitejabber as a business. They had a few issues getting me set up. This is a legitimate business. Google "Martello Alley" and you will see. Why would you think it is a scam?
