If you’re holidaying in the United Kingdom, why not stay in one of Britain’s romantic castle hotels and feel like royalty.

Cliveden

Once famous for the Profumo Affair, and now forever famous as the place where Meghan Markle spent her last night as a mere mortal before being elevated to Duchess of Sussex.

Not far west of London, this fabulous mansion on the Thames invites you to make your own history within its storied walls.

A champagne picnic boating meander on the Suzy Ann, a splash in the pool, or perhaps retreat to the Lady Astor suite and imagine you live like this all the time.

Four-poster beds and fireplaces simply ooze royal romance, there’s one here with your name it.

Maybe book a Rolls to arrive and depart in, you won’t be out of step.

Amberley Castle

If you want something that’s truly historical, how about the fact that this gorgeous place began its life as a manor house for the Bishop of Chichester and fortified in 1377.

Old does not mean worn out and dusty, you’ll be delighted by what you find inside.

Book a suite with an open fire and you can gaze outside through the mullioned windows.

There are suits of armour, but you don’t need to wear one for dinner.

The big plus is that it’s in West Sussex, so just a short trip from London.

Who knows you might just run into the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
