Amner Hall is perfectly located on the Queen's Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. Anmer was a gift to Prince William for his 30th birthday in 2012 and has since undergone extensive renovations to make it a large and comfortable family home for the Cambridges.Anmer Hall was ready for William, Catherine and George to move into towards the end of last year and the family celebrated Christmas there just a few months later.
Being on the Queen's private estate ( the home belongs to the Monarch, not the public) the home provides privacy and makes providing security for the family much easier to integrate with existing arrangements at nearby Sandringham House.
Indeed the family retreated to Anmer from Kensington Palace when Princess Charlotte was only a few days old and the tiny royal was Christened in the local church just two weeks ago.
Prince William has also recently started his new role as helicopter co-pilot at East Anglia Air Ambulance and is based at Cambridge Airport. His duties will cover Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Norfolk and Suffolk.
Earlier this year, the husband and wife housekeepers at Anmer Hall decided to resign their position. An advertisement was placed in The Lady for a replacement housekeeper who would manage the house and assist with child care.
The person chosen for the role is Sadie Rice who is extremely well qualified. 33 year old Sadie grew up in West Sussex and has previously worked as a maid at Buckingham Palace and also helped care for the children of Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette Marit of Norway. Their daughter Princess Ingrid Alexandra will one day be Queen of Norway just as one day Prince George will rule Britain.
As Catherine and William plan to spend a large amount of time at Amner Hall, no doubt Sadie will become a integral part of the couple's household.
