Inside Zara and Mike Tindall's farmhouse living as Royal's celebrate I'm A Celebrity success

Mike Tindall came fourth in this year's I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! after finishing behind Jill, Owen and Matt.

The Lioness took home the crown this year followed by Owen Warner who was the runner up, with MP Matt Hancock finishing third.

Despite becoming an early favourite to take the crown, former World Cup winner Mike , 44, finished fourth. But it seemed he was glad to have made it as far as he did having been greeted by his wife Zara, 41, at the end of the red carpeted bridge.

Even though the show has finished for the year, Mike and wife Zara, who is 20th in line to the throne, have remained Down Under to prepare for the Australian Golf Open. The competition starts on Thursday, meaning they will not yet return to Gatcombe Park estate, where their Aston Farm home sits within, reports The Mirror.

Gatcombe Park is the home of Zara's mother, Princess Anne, where she resides with her husband Vice-Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence. Mike and Zara live at Aston Farm with Mia, eight, Lena, four, and Lucas, one, with her brother, Peter Phillips, his former wife Autumn and their children Savannah, 11, and Isla, 10, living in the nearby properties.

Sophie Smith - founder of Zhoosh Paints - commented on the interior design of Aston Farm, which according to Vogue, has five main bedrooms, four secondary bedrooms, a library, billiards room, four reception rooms and a curved conservatory.

She told the Express : "It was quite a change from the luxury of Aston Farm on the Gatcombe Park estate, the grand country residence of Anne, The Princess Royal, where Mike and his family usually live.

"Known for loving the great outdoors, Mike would feel relatively comfortable living al-fresco. Indeed, Gatcombe Park features huge grounds which play host to lots of equestrian events throughout the year.

"It also includes an impressive conservatory, just built on their home, which can be seen from the front of the house, offering a sunny transition from indoor to outdoor living."

At the centre of the estate is a converted barn known to Princess Anne's family as "the party barn", which has a bar, giant screen, catering facilities and combining lounges.
