Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s secret £2.5m country love nest revealed as gorgeous converted farmhouse

THIS is the first picture of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's country hideaway — a £2.5million Cotswold farmhouse.

They regard it as more of a home than Harry’s Nottingham Cottage bachelor pad in Kensington Palace.

And they have hosted a number of A-list pals including George and Amal Clooney, Serena Williams and husband Alexis Ohanian plus Priyanka Chopra and her hubby Nick Jonas.

Meghan’s mum Doria Ragland has also visited the Grade II-listed country retreat, set in four acres of rolling Oxfordshire hills.

A friend said: “It’s a fabulous place with stunning views and extraordinarily private.

“It’s set in a small bowl of beautiful countryside so is not overlooked in any way.

“Meghan adores the area. She and Harry love walking the dogs there, and they can entertain their friends in complete solitude.”

The farmhouse, which dates from the 18th century, has four bedrooms with one converted to a dressing room.

An attached converted barn includes an “upper kitchen” and “lower kitchen” plus a sitting area with floor-to-ceiling windows.

There is a large dining room plus an outdoor seating area with patio heaters.

And the house comes with a two-bedroom cottage for guests or staff.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex started renting the property early last year on a two-year lease and moved in before their May wedding.

Harry, 34, and Meghan, 37, will keep it for the time being even when they move from Kensington Palace to Windsor’s Frogmore Cottage — a switch revealed by The Sun last year.

Meghan is currently overseeing renovation work on the Windsor home and they hope to move in before the birth of their first baby, believed to be due in late March or early April.
