HRH Queen Elizabeth II has so many residences besides Buckingham Palace, even she may forget where they all are at times! The Queen in fact has seven official royal residences throughout the UK, some of which she spends months of a time living in - Windsor Castle is perhaps the next best-known. If you’re looking to catch a glimpse of the Queen on your royalty-themed break, we’ve got the full details on where she lives and when you may see her.
Whilst HRH Queen Elizabeth II is one of the few people on the planet that has the front door keys to a number of luxurious properties, we hold the keys to even more properties that are nearby. If a visit to a royal residence is in your holiday itinerary, read on and you’ll also find a selection of great places to stay close by.
Windsor Castle, Windsor, Berkshire

Windsor Castle is the world’s largest inhabited castle. This famous residence is located on a gigantic hill next to the River Thames, 20 miles west of London, and parts of the structure date back before the days of William the Conqueror. Windsor locals can tell if she’s at home by which flag has been hoisted – if it’s the Union Jack, she’s away, and if it's the Royal Standard, she’s there.
Most of the castle’s grounds and inner walls are open to the public, and certain parts like the State Rooms and Queen Mary’s Dolls House can be visited. A full visit to the castle will take you about half a day, but why not discover the wonderful streets of Windsor or The Great Park and Eton College too? There’s always plenty to do in Windsor.
When is the Queen there?
Most weekends, during Easter, during Royal Ascot and the Order of the Garter in June, and during Christmas.

Buckingham Palace, London

When is the Queen there?
Monday-Friday most weeks of the year.
