King Charles has given up his £1.2million cottage in rural Wales as he begins to downsize his property portfolio.
The monarch used the luxury farmhouse Llwynywermod regularly when he was Prince of Wales after purchasing it in 2007.
But sources said it is "unlikely" Charles, 74, will continue to utilise the property as often now he is King. Six of the English field maples, which formed the avenue of trees at William and Kate's 2011 wedding, were later rehomed at the Welsh retreat.
