Going on holiday in Windsor

There's no getting around Windsor's year-long crowds, but you can avoid the bulk of traffic by travelling outside of school holiday periods. These include shoulder seasons in spring and autumn when the neighbouring countryside becomes spectacular for walks and sightseeing. Winter is another delightful time to visit, with crisp walking weather, and plentiful shops, restaurants and attractions to visit. You’ll also find delightful Christmas decorations and many charming outdoor events. If you’re visiting the town for Windsor Castle, remember that it’s closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The town also gets busier around Royal Windsor Racecourse events, so try to avoid those periods if you’re not looking to attend the races.

The opinion of the Voyage Privé travel expert on Windsor

Windsor Castle looms over the town, giving Windsor its regal and sophisticated grace. But there's more to Windsor. Explore the streets on foot and you'll soon uncover a wealth of inviting boutique shops, delectable eateries and historic attractions. What's more, it shares its river with Eton on the other side, where you'll find a more relaxed high street of antique sellers and galleries to peruse.

Windsor – come for the castle, stay for the parks

Windsor is prized for its glorious parks and countryside, which make great days out followed by a charming pub visit. South of Windsor Castle, you'll find the 2,020-acre Windsor Great Park, a surprisingly peaceful and vibrant wilderness given the hustle of Windsor's centre. This is where you'll find historic sites like Runnymede, where the world's first constitution, the Magna Carta, was signed.
