The weather was mixed on the day of our visit last August,
no rain, some moments of sunshine, but mostly gloomy

Dining Room
I think photography wasn't allowed because I took these photos from displays.
They were all dated from a few years ago, but I suspect the furnishings are still as beautiful and sumptuous.
Drawing Room
Small Drawing Room
Saloon
I wonder if Charles, Anne, Andrew and Edward drove these around the grounds?
The grown up cars were very impressive
Comfortable cruising
Weekend Shooting Brake Town Run Around
There were some lovely items in the museum
The gardens are very pretty
with some interesting sculptures
The church that Her Majesty uses when she's at Sandringham

How wonderful, I would love to visit Sandringham myself. I would love to have been driven around in the town runaround car too come to think of it!

I fancy the comfortable cruising! x
DeleteDespite having been birdwatching in the area I've never been to the house itself. Those cars are in immaculate condition - whoever may have driven them it clearly wasn't Prince Phillip!
ReplyDeleteI think he might have driven it when he was younger!
DeleteWhat a wonderful tour you took us on, a sight for sore eyes, stunning. Loved seeing the cars both for the children and the not so young. So very grand.
ReplyDeleteThat is a good description for it mama, it is grand.
DeleteDoes the Queen use those apartments when she stays there? They look beautiful but not very cosy!
ReplyDeleteI think they are kept that way for the visitors. I Suspect the royals have their own personalised apartments.
DeleteEven with all the gold and elegance, these look a little more comfortable than some of the palaces. Maybe not cozy but at least the furniture looks a bit softer. I would love to this place in person.
ReplyDeleteI love the plush elegance, but you're right Jeanie, I like cosy to relax in :-) x
