King Charles and Queen Camilla will head to Scotland next week for their annual summer break at the Balmoral estate, but will break with tradition by not staying in the main castle.
The estate was the summer residence of the late Queen Elizabeth II, who typically stayed there from mid-July until September or October each year. Following her death in September, this year’s visit will be a poignant one, marking Charles’s first summer at the estate without his mother, and his first as monarch.
