While Prince William and Princess Kate jetted off to the sunny Seychelles for their 2011 honeymoon, The King and Queen Camilla—who celebrated their 20th anniversary on April 9—chose a decidedly chillier option for their post-wedding trip. The royal couple traveled north for their April 2005 honeymoon, and according to a former royal gardener, Their Majesties didn't exactly spend their time sunbathing.
Charles and Camilla chose to vacation on the King's 53,000-acre Birkhall estate, which is located on the grounds of Balmoral Castle. Speaking on behalf of Fruity King, Jack Stooks, who worked as a senior gardener at Highgrove for more than 20 years, said he had a special reason for traveling to Scotland with the then-Duke and Duchess of Cornwall for their honeymoon.
