Queen Camilla shops in Scotland with family
18 Aug
Summary
- Queen Camilla visited Ballater, Scotland, with her sister and daughter.
- The royal family has vacationed at Balmoral Castle since 1845.
- King Charles continues his mother's tradition of summering at Balmoral.
Queen Camilla, accompanied by her sister Annabel Elliot, daughter Laura Lopes, and granddaughter Eliza, was recently seen shopping in Ballater. This village is near Balmoral Castle, the traditional late summer residence for the British royals. The family's outing showcased a casual side as they browsed local shops.
Balmoral Castle, situated in Aberdeenshire, has been a cherished royal estate since its purchase in 1845. It was particularly favored by the late Queen Elizabeth II, who spent her late summers there annually. Her son, King Charles, has upheld this tradition since ascending the throne in 2022.
The estate's 50,000 acres provide a private escape for the monarch, much like Sandringham in Norfolk. This getaway offers Queen Camilla a respite after a busy summer filled with various public engagements and family events.
