Tamarisk, or Tamarisk House, belongs to Charles, King of England, and is located on St Mary’s in the Isle of Scilly, off the coast of Cornwall. Built in the mid-1960s, in a quarter-acre plot, it’s largely hidden from view by its namesake shrub, the tamarisk.
Before Charles separated from Diane, the Princess of Wales, they often spent their holidays in the Isles of Scilly, but usually stayed with friends on Tresco, the second-biggest of the island of the Isles of Scilly. The cottage is built of brick, and is often lent to friends and relations of the prince.
Chateau du Stuyvenberg
Another residence of the Belgian Royal Family, the Chateau du Styvenberg (Stuyvenberg Castle), located in Laeken, Brussels, and is near the Royal Castle of Laeken. It was built in 1725 and was acquired for two hundred thousand francs by the Belgian State back in 1840, and later bought by Leopold II who would then donate it to the Royal Trust.
The first Belgian King, Leopold I, used the castle to house his mistress, and their children. A number of Kings and members of the royal family have grown up or were even born in the building, has been used as a guest house for dignitaries, and as a home for Princess Astrid of Belgium, sister to the current King Phillippe.
Gatcombe Park
Gatcombe Park is the country residence of Anne, Princess Royal, the second child and only daughter of the late Queen Elizabeth and the late Prince Philip. It's located between the villages of Minchinhampton and Avening in Gloucestershire, England. Built in the late 18th century to the designs of George Basevi, it is a royal residence to Princess Royal and is privately owned, though parts of the grounds are frequently open for events, such as horse trials and craft fairs.
Queen Elizabeth II bought the house and included a home farm in 1976 as a home for Princess Anne and Captain Mark Phillips, and while the price was not disclosed it is believed to be between five hundred thousand and seven hundred and fifty thousand pounds.
Vaduz Castle
The palace and official residence of the Prince of Liechtenstein, Vaduz Castle is a picturesque construction atop a hill, from where it overlooks the town of Vaduz (which got its name from the castle), which is the capital of Liechtenstein.
First built in the 12th century, the castle has grown larger over the centuries. The Princely Family of Liechtenstein acquired the Vaduz Castle in 1712 when the Family purchased the countship of Vaduz. At the same time, Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI combined the courtship with the Lordship of Schellenberg, which together form the current Principality of Liechtenstein.
