Princess Diana's childhood home has been placed on the rental market, sparking a frenzy amongst royal fans.
Earlier this summer, royal watchers were given the opportunity to visit the stately home, but now they can rent the entire property for an extended stay using Elysian Estates.
The website's description for Althorp House says: "Althorp truly is one of the most spectacular, luxurious and exclusive venues in the UK.
"The ancestral home of the Spencer family, Althorp stands sentinel in its vast private estate, with a magnificent exterior matched by the beauty of the surrounding parkland.
"Althorp offers unparalleled levels of service, privacy and luxury to rival the finest properties anywhere in the world; yet retains the truly welcoming and homely feel that makes Althorp so special.
"Walk in the footsteps of Kings and Queens, feast or celebrate in spectacular surroundings, marvel at the sense of history and artwork, and slumber in pure luxury.
"To stay at Althorp is to become part of the amazing history of this magnificent property, renowned for its discreet yet spectacular hospitality to guests including royalty and aristocracy since 1508."
Prices are available on request, but they certainly will not come cheap given that the property can house 54 people per night.
