The UK is famous for its royal history, so when it comes to the best English heritage sites, a royal coach trip is a must. Take a look at our recommendations below and prepare to explore the grounds of some of the most iconic UK historical sites.
Sandringham Estate: Join us on a coach holiday to Cromer and visit the marvellous Sandringham Estate. With over 60 acres of gardens, this destination is known as the Windsor family’s private country retreat. With a Jacobean design, the home was purchased in 1862 for King Edward VII and has remained a family favourite ever since.
Windsor Castle: The primary residence of the British monarch, Windsor Castle attracts millions of tourists year after year. You’ll be glad to hear that plenty of our coach trips to London visit Windsor Castle – it simply cannot be missed. Bursting with history, heritage, and culture, Windsor Castle is both the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world.
One of the UK’s most unique World Heritage Sites is the Roman Baths. Explored during our coach holidays to Bath, these historic ruins were once an ancient spa, built around 70 AD. Heated by geothermal springs, these baths were created for the Romans settling in Bath to unwind, socialise, and worship their goddess of healing.
Today, the Roman Baths stand as a museum, illuminating the fascinating history of the Roman occupation. Explore the striking terraces and take an audio tour of the ruins. The site displays endless artefacts and even invites you to taste the spa water.
Whilst touring Bath, why not tick off a National Trust property? Cheddar Gorge. England’s largest gorge, Cheddar Gorge, spans the Somerset coast. Offering spectacular views and a chance to connect with the outside world, Cheddar Gorge offers sights you’ll never forget.
Now for another kind of ancient history: the Mediaeval period. The Mediaeval period is known for its distinct architectural style, characterised by its Gothic and Romanesque influence. History lovers are in luck. The UK has a selection of breathtaking Mediaeval buildings that still stand today and are well worth a visit.
