Explore the Enchanting Highgrove House: A Glimpse into King Charles III's Idyllic Country Retreat

Welcome to an exclusive tour of King Charles III and Queen Camilla's private family residence in the picturesque countryside of Gloucestershire, England. Nestled in southwest Tetbury, Highgrove House is a testament to the King's passion for nature, history, and exquisite design. Join us as we delve into the captivating history, unique design, and remarkable details of Their Majesties' beloved home, including its stunning gardens and fascinating features.

Highgrove House, King Charles III's primary residence, holds a special place in his heart. Acquired in 1980 before his marriage to Princess Diana, the estate has undergone extensive renovations and now boasts an organic farm and some of the most inspiring gardens in the UK. The house became the perfect playground for the young princes, William and Harry, and continues to be a cherished family retreat.

Built between 1796 and 1798 for the Crawley-Boevey family, Highgrove House is a magnificent three-story building designed by Anthony Keck in the austere Neoclassical style. The estate's exterior retains many neoclassical decorative details, while the interior has been beautifully restored to reflect the tastes and preferences of its royal inhabitants.

One of the estate's highlights is the Sundial Garden, adorned with busts of famous individuals admired by the King. The garden's layout has been preserved since its creation and features a central stone sundial, a wedding gift to the Prince and Princess of Wales. The King's passion for delphiniums is evident, with many beautiful flowers gracing the gardens.

Highgrove House is also home to the charming treehouse originally built for Prince William's seventh birthday. Recently refurbished for Prince George, the treehouse is a testament to the King's dedication to creating magical spaces for his family. Additionally, the estate includes a nature-based playground at Dumfries House in Ayrshire, Scotland, inspired by the original treehouse.

The estate's history is not without its challenges. A severe fire in 1982 caused significant damage, but the house was meticulously restored, preserving its neoclassical charm. The interiors were redecorated by Robert Kime, reflecting the tastes of Queen Camilla.

Visitors to Highgrove can explore the gardens through guided tours available between April and October. The Highgrove Shop offers a range of products, including food, alcohol, homeware, and exclusive items inspired by the estate. All profits from the shop support The King's Charitable Foundation, providing grants to small and medium-sized charities.

Highgrove House also holds a special place in popular culture, featuring in season 4 of the historical drama series "The Crown." The series showcases the King's passion for sustainable gardening, reflecting his dedication to creating a harmonious relationship with nature.

As King Charles III fulfills his formal royal duties at Buckingham Palace, his heart remains at Highgrove House. This idyllic retreat stands as a testament to his love for the countryside, sustainable practices, and the preservation of natural beauty.
