Looks a bit like Smuggler's Cottage, Tolverne, if the outbuildings weren't there.

John Gillo
John Gillo graduated from Brighton School of Art in 1970. He taught in various schools and colleges including Falmouth School of Art 1972-1974.
John established The John Gillo Gallery in Dartmouth, Devon in 1976.Through his gallery he developed a reputation for watercolours, drawing his inspiration from the local environment and painting atmospheric images of scenes of Dartmouth, the South Hams, Brixham and Torquay.
More recently, John has worked with acrylic paints, creating images of local scenes with deep tones, full; of atmosphere and pathos. He has also had a lot of fun painting more abstract pieces of hillside towns; these have some rather unexpected figures appearing in them!
Whilst John sold the gallery in 2004, he continues to exhibit through reputable galleries nationally and in Dartmouth, Brixham and Kingsbridge.
