Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's beautiful $14million (£11million) mansion has a vast kitchen and grand entranceway but one of the major highlights has to be the garden with its villa-worthy outdoor pool.

Many snippets of their home life were revealed during their Netflix documentary, Harry & Meghan, including a sweet moment of the family in the garden where fans got to see their pool.

Prince Harry was seen throwing oranges down from a tree to his young son Archie while Meghan was behind the camera. As the Duchess panned around the outdoor space, a corner of their outdoor pool was revealed, with Pula their dog playing nearby.

Speaking in a virtual appearance, Harry gave an insight into his very busy household, explaining that the dogs chase squirrels around the garden.

We're sure the Sussexes' children Archie Harrison and Lilibet Diana love using the outdoor feature when the US sun is shining.

Their family residence is officially named the Chateau of Riven Rock, and it was listed on the rental platform Giggster for people to hire out for shoots and events and that gave royal fans a chance to the pool in its entirety.

 Speaking to The Cut, Meghan revealed that it was a garden feature which sold them on the property in the first place. "One of the first things my husband saw when we walked around the house was those two palm trees. See how they’re connected at the bottom? He goes, 'My love, it's us'," the Duchess said.
