The Duchess of Cornwall's enchanted garden

As part of her Reading Room project, Camilla treated viewers to an enchanting shot taken through an open doorway, providing a unique perspective on the outdoor space. In the foreground is an area full of wild foliage (1), with a path that leads to the perfectly manicured hedges beyond. Beneath these stands a single chair.

The alfresco seating area is an ideal spot to enjoy one of the books Camilla recommends on her Instagram series.
As soon as it was uploaded (2) to the @duchessofcornwallsreadingroom account, the photo drew praise from fans. One commented: "I could just sit on that wee (3) seat in the sunshine and read. Beautiful pic," while another added: "What a magical photograph! A secret garden."

Each time the Duchess releases a new image from within the grounds of her country estate, it is met with admiration from the public, who love the tranquility of the gardens.

While Camilla and Prince Charles may have a team of gardeners on hand to keep their plants looking perfect, the royals themselves are keen to get involved too.

Appearing on TV show Gardeners' World, Camilla opened up to presenter Monty Don about her own gardening, admitting that it isn’t always plain sailing (4). She made a candid confession about pests, revealing that voles had ravaged her strawberries and asparagus roots. The royal also spoke about future plans: "I've got a little bit of a woodland garden that I've started and I would love to build that up more. I would love to put down swathes of bulbs, and I would also like to have a proper wildflower meadow (5)."
