Little did I realise at the time that I was sleeping in the bed of the future King Charles III.
I should have done. I was, after all, staying in the personal quarters of the then Prince of Wales in the lovingly-restored Transylvanian house to which – when he really wants to get away from it all – he retreats.
But like so many who have known nothing else in life, I simply could not imagine a time when we would no longer have the Queen.
No, my accommodation for that night was in the ‘Prince’s Room’ in what ranks as the most extraordinary guesthouse I’ve ever stayed in – the collection of dwellings owned by King Charles in the Transylvanian village of Zalanpatak which, when he is not in residence, can be rented by members of the public for between £100 and £150 a head per night. The proceeds support his local charity foundation.
