Visit Britain and enjoy a 'rich' fairytale holiday
BRITAIN'S national tourism agency is set to launch a major marketing campaign to persuade more wealthy tourists to spend their cash on luxury holidays in the country's castles, stately homes and theaters.
VisitBritain will promote "fairytale" holidays, based on three tiers of luxury, gold, platinum and black, to attract the estimated 10 million high net worth individuals with more than US$1 million.
"While every country has 5-star hotels, luxurious spas, designer shops and championship golf courses Britain stands out because it has the original world-renowned luxury experiences and brands," Patricia Yates, director of strategy and communications at VisitBritain, said in a statement yesterday. "For example, a stay at Claridge's, shopping in Selfridges, or 18 holes at St Andrew's, have a cachet that can't be found elsewhere."
VisitBritain said it had identified a fashion among the rich for dreamlike or fairytale holidays, and it will draw on the country's rich history, "showing a magical side of Britain which has a powerful sense of playfulness and fantasy."
Such a holiday could include a stay in a stately home, with a floor-to-ceiling butterfly house.
Also on offer are "seamless" holidays for those who don't want friction, and could include living as a laird in a Scottish castle, blending your own bottle of malt whisky, playing golf on prestigious courses and being measured for a kilt.
The Gold holiday is for those who want "bling luxury," while the Platinum is for those who are less overt, and the Black is for those who want the understated, minimal but substantial holiday.
