Which other properties does King Charles own?

The King has homes in England, Scotland and Wales. 

King Charles also holds his private residence in Scotland - Birkhall - on the Balmoral estate, in Aberdeenshire.

Llwynywermod, in the village of Myddfai in Carmarthenshire, is the Royal Highnesses' Welsh home.

King Charles will now also inherit Sandringham in Norfolk, which is privately owned by the Royal Family.

A source told The Mail on Sunday: "Everybody recognises it makes no sense to run so many residences but if you give them up entirely you will never get them back when Prince George and the younger royals grow up and need somewhere to live."
