We went to Croome Park today for a walk. Now that it’s October, the weather is getting a bit iffy, but we now have a nice wooly hat for Ben and Georgina is intending to get herself one shortly to keep her ears warm. I think next time we go out, I’ll take my gloves – the wind was a bit chilly!

Croome Park was quite good. It starts out with you walking though a series of shrubberies which were in the process of being restored. I think it’ll take at least 10 years to get all the plants mature enough for these bits to be anything like how Capability Brown intended. At the bottom of the path, you go under a bridge and come to a lovely lake. This bit was very impressive and made the entire trip worthwhile.
