While the UK’s Prime Minister is automatically given the option to live in Number 10 Downing Street when they begin their tenure, there is a much larger, more lavish house that they are also entitled to stay at.

The countryside holiday retreat has come under the spotlight in recent weeks after it was reported that Boris and Carrie Johnson hosted a close friend at Chequers while some coronavirus restrictions were still in place.
