Prince Andrew's royal residence boasts 30 rooms with stunning interiors and plenty of space for entertaining.
Andrew shares the home with his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson despite them having divorced in 1996.
It’s so big that their daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie were able to hold their wedding receptions at the family home.
