Croome - Visiting Summer 2021

Croome provides a wonderful day out. Owned by the Coventry for many years, at the heart is Croome Court, surrounded by amazing gardens and parkland to explore. These were designed by Robert Adam and Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown. They have been restored over the years by the National Trust

As a former RAF base, volunteers have created a RAF museum here. The house contains different art installations, working with artists in response to Croome’s architecture and history.

Croome is open every day and you don’t need to book your visit in advance. Please note that the house is currently closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. Unfortunately the Play area is closed due to essential maintenance.
