See England play Wales at the Six Nations in Cardiff on this very special short break in the company of a rugby legend. Former England rugby player Chris Ashton will gear you up for the match with a talk and Q&A at your hotel, The Celtic Manor Resort. Chris is one of the few players who have represented England in both rugby union and rugby league and is the most prolific try scorer in Premiership history.
You'll then travel to Principality Stadium for the match, where you'll have Category A seats. England beat Wales 16-14 in a tight contest at Twickenham during the 2024 Six Nations, so it's bound to be a thrilling match as these old rivals face each other once again. As a special memento, subscribers will receive a signed and framed print of the actual commentary sheets used during the match.
Enjoy plenty of free time at your luxury hotel. This award-winning resort is set in 2000 acres of parkland in the Usk Valley. There is a whole host of outdoor activities to enjoy at The Celtic Manor, from clay pigeon and fishing to mountain biking. The resort was host of the 2010 Ryder Cup golfing competition with three championship golf courses, so why not add a round of golf at this prestigious course to cap off your weekend away? If you'd rather take it easy, there is ample opportunity to simply relax at The Celtic Manor. There's the award-winning Forum Spa, as well as five restaurants serving everything from simple pub classics to modern dishes made with quality Welsh ingredients.
Chris Ashton is one of England's finest wings and one of the few players who has represented his country in both rugby union and rugby league. With more than 40 caps for England, Chris scored 20 tries including one against Wales. He is also the record try scorer in Premiership history.
