Tuesday 27 August 2024 - Croome Court

We chose to break our drive from Bath to Timperley by way of a visit to Croome Court, a National Trust property near Worcester.

Before walking around the interior of the house, during which time my camera stayed in my pocket, we enjoyed a 5km stroll around the park in which Croome Court is situated. Here are some of the highlights.
