Visitors have a rare opportunity to enjoy panoramic countryside views as Croome's historic Panorama Tower opens to the public this weekend.

One of Croome's 'eye-catchers', the tower, a historical gem built in 1801 by James Wyatt for the 6th Earl of Coventry, is usually closed to the public.

The tower offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding countryside from its balcony.

The free event is scheduled from 12pm to 2.30pm on Saturday, July 25, with normal admission charges applicable.

Visitors are encouraged to make donations to support the upkeep of Croome.
