Wood Farm

Wood Farm is a five-bedroom cottage located in a secluded part of the Sandringham Estate, overlooking the sea.

[1] King George V and Queen Mary sent their youngest son, Prince John, who suffered from epileptic seizures, to reside at Wood Farm in 1917.

[1][3] The cottage was subsequently rented out for a number of years, including to James Ansell, the royal family's physician, before his retirement in the 1960s.

[1] Prince Philip chose the cottage for the family or guests to stay in without the huge staff or costs presented by the main house.

[1] Charles III, when Prince of Wales, began to host shooting parties at Wood Farm during his college years, and continued to use it as a country retreat in adulthood.
