What could be more extravagant than a stay in a bedroom once used by Queen Elizabeth I or Queen Victoria? Here are some of the most splendid royal bedrooms you can stay in

So dig out those velvet pyjamas (embroidered with the family crest, naturally) and prepare to be pampered at one of these very fine royal bedrooms you can stay in, from Queen Victoria’s hideaways of Inverlochy Castle Hotel, Endsleigh and Cliveden House, to Fawsley Hall Hotel & Spa, where Queen Elizabeth I stayed in 1575.
