His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales will visit National Trust property Anglesey Abbey in Cambridgeshire today for a tour of the country house in his role as Patron of British Tourism Week 2011.
During the visit, Prince Charles will be taken through the gardens to Lode Mill where he will be accompanied by key committee members of British Tourism Week to tour the historic mill and meet National Trust volunteers. They will then make their way to the Abbey where The Prince will meet tourism minister John Penrose MP and deliver the opening address at a VisitEngland summit.
Co-Chair of British Tourism Week Patricia Yates said: “It is a privilege to host His Royal Highness in Anglesey Abbey for the start of British Tourism Week 2011.
"Visiting castles and stately homes is regarded as a key experience for visitors to the UK and this is an opportunity to showcase the wealth of heritage Britain has to share with the world.”
