Charles regularly shares photos of the stunning property, which was the childhood home of Princess Diana and where she lies in rest.

Earlier this week, the Earl shared an incredible video of Althorp House – and royal fans branded it "bewitching". "Althorp waking up after last night's thunderstorm," penned Charles on Monday, alongside a clip of the magnificent estate.

It was an enchanting misty morning with the sun peering through the fog across the immaculate lawns, and the camera panned elegantly across the estate to soak up the atmosphere. It's safe to say fans couldn't believe their eyes and the wondrous sight.
