Behind the closed doors of Highgrove, Birkhall, Balmoral, or Ray Mill House, the King and Queen are protected from the prying eyes of the public. Inside these stately homes, the Royal Family can relax and truly be themselves. According to former head gardener Jack Stooks, Queen Camilla carries on quite the social life in the privacy of her own home, but the King can’t seem to switch off.
“I think Camilla is quite social,” Stooks revealed to Smooth Spins. Queen Camilla has her own country home, Ray Mill House, tucked away in Wiltshire. She has owned the impressive stately home since 1994, when she divorced her first husband and bought Ray Mill as her own single girl Barbie Dream House. Since then, it’s been a haven. “She's got a lot of her friends and her family that she likes to see and spends a lot of time with her sister,” Stooks shared.
