The 775-room palace is the official London residence and administrative headquarters of the monarchy since 1837; it hosts the sovereign's weekly meetings with the prime minister.
Sitting beside St. James' Palace, Clarence House has been Charles' residence since his days as Prince of Wales. Completed in 1827, it underwent major renovations in 2002–2003 and serves as office space and a venue for receptions and official visitors; it opens to the public each August.
About two and a half hours from London in Gloucestershire, Highgrove has been the family home since its 1980 purchase. Owned by the Duchy of Cornwall, the estate is known for its colorful gardens and the Orchard Room built in local Cotswold stone.
