British royal residences are palaces, castles and houses which are occupied by members of the British royal family in the United Kingdom.
The current residences are owned by the Crown, by the Duchy of Cornwall, and privately by members of the royal family; all the official residences are owned by the Crown.
[1][2] Some official residences, such as the Palace of Holyroodhouse and Hillsborough Castle, serve primarily ceremonial functions and are rarely used residentially.
[1] Public opening is overseen by the Royal Collection Trust.
Unlike the other nations of the United Kingdom, there is no official residence for a member of the royal family in Wales;[4] Llwynywermod is the private Welsh residence of the Prince of Wales.
