King Charles is poised to embrace a time-honored royal tradition this summer with an extended stay in Scotland, according to a report from The Mail on Sunday. 

Following in the footsteps of the late Queen Elizabeth II, Charles plans to spend an extended period at Balmoral, a Scottish retreat traditionally favored by the monarch until late September or early October.

Sources close to His Majesty have indicated that Charles intends to enjoy a longer break in Scotland, potentially residing at the historic Castle of Mey, along with accommodations at either Birkhall or Balmoral. 

This decision marks a departure from his previous approach in 2023 when he returned to London earlier than usual. 

Later that September, King Charles and Queen Camilla embarked on a postponed state visit to France.

The upcoming summer retreat underscores King Charles' commitment to maintaining royal customs and reconnecting with the Scottish landscape, echoing the cherished traditions of his predecessors in the royal family. 

During their three-day trip, the royal couple embarked on a memorable visit to Paris and Bordeaux, marked by ceremonial pomp and historic venues. 

Their journey commenced with a ceremonial welcome at the iconic Arc de Triomphe in Paris, symbolizing the diplomatic ties between nations.
