Well if Prince Andrew doesn't want it, I'm sure there will be plenty of people who want a free house in central London. Get it on the council housing list.
I don't disagree but Frogmore is on the Windsor estate. Calling it central London is a bit of a stretch.I grew up very close to it (within a mile), and poked around a bit outside because one of my schoolmate's Dad worked as a groundsman in Windsor Great Park and we used to follow him around a bit during school holidays for something to do, sneaking about places where we probably shouldn't have been (it was the 1970s, no-one gave a monkey's). I've even sneaked a game on the Royal Household Golf club course alongside it. I never went in the cottage itself, but it is what ordinary people would consider a large house from the outside. I've no reason to suspect it's "bad" or "pokey" inside, but of course a member of the Royal Family who grew up in a Palace rather than the Victorian terraced house I grew up in would have a different perspective.

People are struggling to heat their homes, and he is ‘not happy’ about having his allowance cut and being forced into a 10 bedroom ‘cottage’
Charles hasn’t gone far enough here…

Just idle curiosity, but has anyone on here ( builders, tradesmen, architects, etc.) been inside this place? I would be interested to know just how bad/ pokey it really is!
Certainly pokey. Only 10 bedrooms and 30 acres. Wouldn't touch it with a bargepole.Gassing Station | News, Politics & Economics | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
