United Kingdom
Luxury Holidays

UK luxury holidays don’t ignore Scotland either. Home to big skies, ancient architecture and awe-inspiring landscapes, you’ll be bowled over by the country’s sense of wilderness and tradition. Take a private boat cruise on the mythical Loch Ness, spend time getting to know the country’s many malt whisky distilleries and galivant round romantic castles like Ballindalloch and Craigievar, the latter of which is said to have inspired Walt Disney’s Cinderella castle. Wind your way back to London with a stop in the Lake District to discover why literary legends William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter felt so inspired there. Hop aboard Lake Coniston’s esteemed Victorian steam gondola, potter around good-looking Grasmere and go walking in the surrounding fell mountains.

Back in London it’s all about sightseeing and shopping. Explore along the fashionable King’s Road in Chelsea or opt for a slower pace round Kew Gardens and the Chelsea Physic Garden, London's oldest botanic garden. Catch up over afternoon tea at the world-renowned Fortnum and Masons and shop till you drop along Princes and Burlington Arcades. A visit to the country’s capital isn’t complete without at least one peek into the royal residences. At Kensington Palace, the former residence of Prince William and Catherine and birthplace of Queen Victoria, it’s all about gardens and jewels, while at Windsor Castle, you’ll find grand chapels, state rooms and moats. Oozing with history and charm, UK luxury holidays are bound to go down as well as a scone topped with clotted cream and jam – perfection.
