A Macclesfield country house will be screening some classic movies this May.

Capesthorne Hall in Siddington has teamed up with Adventure Cinema to show five classic movies, amid the stunning scenery of the 18th century country house.

Filmed from the 1980s to the late 2010s will be screened, in what promises to be unforgettable family fun.

Tickets range from £12.50 to £15.50 in price.

The first flick to be screened is Top Gun.

The 1986 movie that put Tom Cruise on the map will be played at Capesthorne on Friday May 17.

The gates will open at 6pm, and the 12-rated film will start at 8pm.

Second up, is The Greatest Showman, which will be on the day after.

The Hugh Jackman musical will be a sing-a-long playback of the 2017 movie.

This one is on Saturday early afternoon, so you'll still have the rest of the day to do what you want and enjoy the Hall's grounds after the feature.

The third of five events Adventure Cinema will be showing at Siddington is actually a double feature.

Both Mamma Mia movies will be screened, with fancy dress encouraged. Fans of ABBA will not want to miss this!

Like The Greatest Showman, this event will also take place on Saturday May 18, so in theory you could see three films in one day if you wanted to!

The following day, The Grufflalo and Stick Man is going to be screened in what is another double header.

And the final film, more appropriate for adults and teenagers, is 1990's Pretty Woman.

This will also be on Sunday May 19.
