The stunning country manor house where Prince Charles courted Lady Diana and conducted his affair with Camilla Parker Bowles has gone up for sale for £3.75million.
Bolehyde Manor was previously home to the now Duchess of Cornwall while she was married to her first husband, Andrew Parker Bowles.
Prince Charles was said to be a frequent visitor during, and even before, the deterioration of his first marriage to Lady Diana Spencer.
But it was also a favoured destination when he was initially wooing the much-loved princess some years earlier.

Andrew Parker Bowles bought the manor house with his new wife in 1973 before selling it for £600,000 in 1986 to the Earl and Countess of Cairns, Simon Cairns and his wife Amanda.
The sprawling, eight-bed property boasts large gardens set over 70 acres featuring a swimming pool and a tennis court, extensive outbuildings and land for farming.
The house has numerous royal connections with the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton’s parents, Carole and Michael, rumoured to have shown an interest in December 2010.
It is located near Chippenham, Wiltshire – just 15 miles from Prince Charles’ estate at Highgrove, near Tetbury, Gloucestershire.
Historical records show evidence of work on the site as far back as 700 years ago, although Bolehyde Manor was built closer to its current form in the 17th century.
It was given Grade II* listing in 1952, with Camilla and husband Andrew moving in two decades later.
