King Charles is set to sell his £1.2 million cottage in the Welsh countryside that has a link to William and Kate's wedding.
The monarch purchased the Llwynywermod farmhouse when he was the Prince of Wales back in 2007, and was said to have used it regularly.
But it's reported the 74-year-old is now 'unlikely' to utilise the property anymore so has made the decision to sell as part of his bid to downsize his housing portfolio.
The Mirror reports that six of the English field maples, which formed the avenue of trees at William and Kate's 2011 wedding, were later rehomed at the Welsh cottage.
Charles also owns or uses Birkhall, Highgrove, Clarence House, Balmoral and Sandringham, and aides are reportedly considering what to do with this large portfolio.
One royal source told the Telegraph it was "an issue that needs to be addressed", with discussions underway about increasing public access to some of Charles's properties to help with funding.
Llwynywermod is located on a huge 192-acre estate near Llandovery in Carmarthenshire.
The lease is due to expire later in the summer, with Buckingham Palace confirming the King gave notice to the Duchy of Cornwall earlier this year.
Other homes on the estate are available for holidaymakers to rent when the King isn't staying there.
A spokesman for the Prince of Wales has reportedly said the monarch had no plans to buy his own home in Wales.
Instead, he prefers to stay in hotels in order to boost the local economy.
Charles had previously described the property as a "godsend" but felt he had bought it "40 years too late".
Speaking in 2021, Charles said: "Rather 40 years too late, probably. But it's been a wonderful opportunity, at last, to have somewhere in Wales. I come whenever I can... I've always felt that it's an important part of holding this particular title.
"It took me years to establish somewhere, it wasn't through want of trying but it was difficult to find the right place.
"I used to go to different other houses which was very kind of people to lend them for a week or something, but it wasn't the same thing obviously until finally we found this, which has been a Godsend really."
Clarence House tweeted in 2013: "The trees from the Royal Wedding at Westminster Abbey are thriving at Llwynywermod."
