Marsh Farm, the five-bedroom Norfolk mansion that will reportedly be Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s new residence, is a “heck of a step-down” from the sprawling Royal Lodge, according to royal commentator Richard Kay.
But the former prince is making sure that he’s as comfortable as he can be there, with a team of builders and other tradesmen spotted working hard to prepare the former farmhouse for its notorious new tenant.
“Workmen were there putting in a satellite dish for him. We know he loves his TV,” Richard told the Palace Confidential podcast, adding “I think it all harks back to his military days. He spent hours watching planes descending and taking off from Heathrow Airport on some interactive system that he had at Royal Lodge, and I’m sure that will be replicated at Marsh Farm.”
