King Charles III giving up his home on the edge of the Brecon Beacons
Despite remaining 'passionate' about Wales, he said it was 'unlikely' he'd be able to use it in the same way as he had before
King Charles III is reportedly giving up his Welsh home on the edge of the Brecon Beacons after purchasing it - along with the 192 acres of land - for just over a million pounds back in 2007.
Llwynywermod, near Llandovery in Carmarthenshire, dates back to the 13th or 14th Century, and was bought for £1.2 million by the Duchy of Cornwall Estate on behalf of the then-Prince of Wales after a 40-year search.
The original owner - William Williams - was related to Anne Boleyn.
Despite saying he remains 'passionate' about Wales, the Telegraph said that since the Duchy of Cornwall was passed to Prince William, the King has been paying rent on Llwynywermod.
Earlier this year, Buckingham Palace confirmed the King told the Duchy he'd be giving the lease up when it's set to expire this summer because - despite their decades-long search for the right house - it was 'unlikely' he'd be able to use it in the same way as he had before.
During the Duchy's tenure in the house, many of the features were restored by Welsh craftspeople using traditional methods and local materials.
Six of the English field maples which formed the avenue of trees at William and Kate's 2011 wedding were later rehomed there too.
Clarence House tweeted in 2013: "The trees from the Royal Wedding at Westminster Abbey are thriving at Llwynywermod."
The prince has spoken of the "enduring landscape of Wales" and how "its mountains, patchworked fields and woods; its coastline, castles, villages and market towns" play a vital role in attracting visitors.
He told Visit Wales: "It certainly cast its spell on me a long time ago."
William inherited a £23 million-a-year income from the Duchy of Cornwall, with the Prince now taking charge of the estate's management.
He is entitled to the annual surplus generated by the portfolio of land owned by the Duchy, as well as its buildings and financial investments.
