On the last day of our honeymoon, we made a visit to Croome on our way back home. A house with one heck of a story, it had a huge remodeling thanks to Capability Brown and Robert Adam, but has also been a home for Hare Krishna's and also a medical station and secret air base during WW2. It was the enormous story that persuaded our visit and we were not disappointed.
Although the weather was rather grim (unlike the rest of the week!) we had a lovely stroll around the expansive parklands (crutches and all...) as well as a nosy in the mansion and a lovely lunch in the War themed cafeteria.
I have loved seeing Croome evolve since it was acquired. Must revisit next year
