The recent Queen’s speech highlighted the importance of reflection. Taking time to consider the recent past can help us make better informed decisions about the future, in the same vein gaining a deeper understanding of history can result in a greater appreciation for the present.

www.BritishHistoryBreaks.com invites you to immerse yourself in history, with stories of historic events and characters from history concisely retold on its site. Many of the stories are connected to luxury places to stay in the UK, including exclusive-hire castles, luxury country houses and immaculately restored hotels. 

Stephen R. Covey once wrote “The picture created in the heart and mind by a story is worth ten thousand words”. Immersing yourself in the birthplace of an incredible story from history is likely to become a story to remember and one you will want to retell.

Lewis Stallard co-founder of British History Breaks says: “We understand that people are time limited, so for those interested in history and looking for a cultural break, we have done the hard work for them. Every property has been visited to ensure it meets our high standards and we have retold the interesting elements of its history to give potential customers a taste for the full story, which can be uncovered during their stay.”

Historical people have been profiled on the site with quotes and interesting facts, including Monarch’s such as King Edward I, (connected to Bodygallen Hall, Dalhousie Castle, Plas Dinas Country House & Ruthin Castle) artists such as Percy Shelley (connected to Glandyfi Castle) and architects such as Sir Christopher Wren, with links to Middlethorpe Hall.

Historic events have been retold including battles, such as The Battle of Crecy (connected to Langley Castle) Wars such as The English Civil War (connected to Ruthin Castle) and periods of great change such as The Industrial Revolution (connected to Peckforton Castle and Glandyfi Castle).
