The late Queen was at her best when she was at Balmoral, according to Elizabeth's granddaughter Princess Eugenie, who spoke in an ITV interview. “It’s the most beautiful place on Earth.


I think granny is the most happy there. I think she really, really loves the Highlands,” Eugenie said. “Walks, picnics, dogs — a lot of dogs, there’s always dogs — and people coming in and


out all the time. It’s a lovely base for granny and grandpa, for us to come and see them up there; where you just have room to breathe and run.” According to reports, the Queen would put on


rubber gloves and do the dishes while Prince Philip enjoyed tending the BBQ before the group gathered to play parlour games after dinner.
