Do Prince William and Kate Middleton have a secret third home in Scotland?
As well as second home in Norfolk, Anmer Hall, Prince William and Kate Middleton are said to also have a much-loved home in the Scottish countryside
Prince William and Kate Middleton are set to move the family to Windsor from Kensington Palace as their permanent residence, but apparently the family enjoy a third secret home in Scotland.
- The Cambridge family have their own special Scottish retreat, used when visiting the Queen at Balmoral, according to reports.
- There are no photographs of this apparent third home, however the family are said to be very fond of the property.
- In other royal news, the only people to leave tennis prodigy Emma Raducanu ‘starstruck’ were these two royals
The Cambridge family are set to make a big move from Kensington Palace to Windsor later this year, but they're likely to spend some time at a third home (that's far less reported on) in Scotland over the summer.
The Mirror reports that when the family visit the Queen at Balmoral in Scotland, they don't need to rely on her putting them up in the main castle, as they have their own private property to reside in.
The newspaper reports that the home is called Tam-Na-Ghar cottage and was gifted to Prince William by the Queen Mother - and is a place very close to his and Catherine's hearts.
In addition to their new Windsor home, the family also have a countryside escape at Anmer Hall on the Queen's Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. It's thought that this countryside escape is mainly used when the family are visiting Balmoral over the summer holidays.
Balmoral is one of the key residences where the Royal Family stay in Scotland. The Queen has already started her trip to Aberdeenshire, but it's unclear whether Her Majesty has reached Balmoral Castle yet.
Princess Eugenie has previously revealed on the 2016 documentary, Our Queen at Ninety, what a wonderful time the royals have in Scotland when they all get together.
