The Princess of Wales is set to miss out on her beloved holiday hotspot this year – and will, instead, head to spend some family time at the Balmoral Estate in Scotland.

As reported by the Daily Beast, it is thought that the Waleses are unlikely to travel this year to Tresco – a small island off the coast of Cornwall – where they have often spend summer holidays.

With the publication said to have been told that the family of five will, instead, head to Balmoral either for the opening of the grouse-shooting season on August 12 – or shortly after.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are known to enjoy soaking up quality time with Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six, during the school holidays – and this year is no exception.

Prince William previously revealed that his children wanted to go on holiday to Cornwall this year – and were “jealous” of him visiting there earlier this year

Back in May, William said that George, Charlotte and Louis were hoping to “come away for a holiday later this year” and were excited to hopefully spend some time at the beach, OK! reported.

Kate and William are known to be fans of Cornwall and have enjoyed many visits their during their relationship – as well as with their three children.

As well as it being known a favourite holiday destination for the family, holidaymakers have also recalled witnessing the family of five enjoying some much-needed quality time there over the years.

Some holidaymakers previously told OK!: “We hardly noticed at first as they seemed [like] a normal family on holiday intent on keeping themselves to themselves.”

Speaking of the family’s visit to Balmoral this month, a source previously confirmed with Express.co.uk that Kate and William were keen to prioritise family time.

The source said: “William and Kate will be joining the Royal Family at Balmoral. It will be a rather low key affair this year where everyone will meet to just relax and unwind.”

As well as Kate, William and their children, Princess Anne and Sir Timothy Laurence are set to join the King and Queen at the Scottish estate. Zara and Mike Tindall and their three children – Mia, Lena and Lucas – are also reportedly on the guest list.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are set to not be joining the family in Scotland, and will instead likely remain in the US with their children.
