Founded by William the Conqueror and still one of the main residences of Queen Elizabeth II, this historic attraction is a must-visit on short breaks in Berkshire. After exploring the ornate state rooms, priceless artifacts, and exciting exhibitions throughout the castle, why not walk the ‘Long Walk’ and soak up the beautiful views of Windsor Great Park?

St Mawes, Cornwall - Premier Inn hotels in Cornwall

Thanks to its picture-perfect scenery and clear blue waters, it’s no surprise that many members of the royal family have escaped to this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Cornwall.
