King Charles' cousin Lord Ivar Mountbatten insists he doesn't miss his £5.5m country estate - and instead prefers renting A cousin of King Charles has revealed that he doesn't miss his multi-million-pound country estate - and he instead prefers to rent.
Lord Ivar Mountbatten, 61, put Bridwell Park, his Grade I Georgian house in mid-Devon, on the market for £5.5million in April last year.
But Ivar has now revealed he prefers renting to owning a house because you don't need to worry about the cost endured for maintaining the property.
The pair said at the time they were putting it up for sale on a 'commercial and residential' basis and vacated the property in September so that the new buyers could settle in.
It is exceedingly comfortable, with every mod con you can possibly want — like those boiling water taps.
