Need money? King Charles opens the royal estate for vacation
If you have ever wondered what it feels like to live like the British nobility, now you have a chance to do it — sort of. The Sandringham Estate, which King Charles inherited from his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, is opening its doors for private vacationing.
Who doesn't want to feel like a king? The Sandringham Estate in England, where the royal family usually celebrates Christmas, recently renovated the historic water tower on its grounds — and it is now available for private rental, offering you a chance to experience life like royalty.
"The wait is over, here is the water tower," the estate's official Instagram page announced alongside footage of the impressive renovation, providing a glimpse into the luxurious bedroom and the breathtaking views. Prices start at around 151 pounds per night (about 610 shekels), though they can be higher for short stays; the nightly rate tends to decrease the longer you stay.
The water tower, built in 1877 by engineer James Mansergh, was originally intended to provide running water to the royals and remained in use for nearly a century. King Charles inherited Sandringham and the Balmoral Estate from the late Queen Elizabeth II, following its original purchase by Queen Victoria in 1862 as a retreat for her son, King Edward VII.
The water tower joins two other accommodation options on the estate available for rent: the Gardens House, suitable for eight guests, and The Folly, designed for six people.
