William and Kate's favourite UK holiday hotspots

As well as spending their summer holidays at Anmer Hall, here's where the Prince and Princess of Wales like to staycation...

Isles of Scilly – the royal couple visited in 2020. They were spotted biking on Tresco Island. A holidaymaker who saw them at the time told The Sun: “We hardly noticed at first as they seemed a normal family on holiday intent on keeping themselves to themselves.

“The place where they were staying was quite modest and certainly not hugely luxurious.”

Balmoral – Up until the Queen’s death, the couple’s summer travel plans would always include a trip to Balmoral in Scotland. The pair have reportedly told friends they’ve enjoyed some of their happiest times together there.
