It is located just 11 miles away from Windsor Castle, a royal residence where the monarch spends a lot of her time. In a past interview with Sky News, the Countess explained: "We're a lot more fortunate because we live so close to the Queen, so when she spends a lot of time at Windsor on the weekends, our children are more fortunate because they can go over and have tea with her on a regular basis."
