The most significant is Windsor Castle. It has 1,000 rooms, 52 bedrooms and is estimated to be worth £500m
Next is Royal Lodge. This is currently occupied by Prince Andrew and his former wife Sarah Ferguson. It has a mere 30 rooms and 7 bedrooms and is worth £30m. Andrew is not paying rent
Frogmore Cottage. Briefly occupied by Harry and Megan it has five bedrooms and is currently vacant. Its worth £3m. It is reportedly one option for Andrew if he leaves Royal Lodge
Adelaide Cottage near Frogmore and worth c£1.7m may house Sarah Ferguson is she also leaves Royal Lodge. Apparently the five bedrooms at Frogmore mean it’s not big enough to share with Andrew.
Forest Lodge, is set to be the future home of the Prince and Princess of Wales. A 328 year old Grade 11 listed building it has eight bedrooms and is worth c£16m, if they move out of Adelaide Cottage to make way for Sarah Ferguson
