The United Kingdom’s Queen Elizabeth is seeking a tenant for her property at the English countryside in Sandringham for spring 2021. According to the Sandringham estate website, the British monarch’s Flitcham Hall property, which is a six-bedroom manor house, is the “ultimate private country house”. The property will be available for next spring for £3,750 per calendar month. 

The Flitcham Hall property is on 20,000-acre Sandringham estate in Norfolk and is less than two miles from Sandringham House. Since it is a luxury property, the prospective tenants will be vetted in a bid to ensure if they are suitable. The tenants are expected to live full time in the hall for a minimum of three years, however, there is one condition. Then tenants should not bring cats.

According to reports, the ban on cats, which was introduced back in 2016, is thought to have been brought in after domestic cats killed game birds that had been reared for Royal shooting parties. Dogs, on the other hand, are permitted on ‘a house by house basis’ in the posh areas. The tenants will have to sign up an Assured Shorthand Tenancy in a bid to rent the manor house.
