Like many families around the world, the British royals have a packed house during the Christmas season. Prince William recently shared that 45 people were coming to the Sandringham estate for the holidays this year, and even more relatives were added to the guest list after his admission. Space is at such a premium, in fact, that one year, The Queen's own daughter had to seek alternative sleeping arrangements.
Sandringham House, located in the Norfolk countryside, was described by Majesty magazine editor-in-chief Ingrid Seward as “small by royal standards" in a recent interview with OK! magazine. While the estate boasts numerous cottages on its approximately 20,000 acres of property, the main house has 29 bedrooms—which sounds like a lot until you have close to 50 people coming for Christmas.
