The Queen - then Princess Elizabeth - spent time in the villa while her husband served on HMS Chequers in the Mediterranean.

Villa Guardamangia is a six-bedroom palazzo-style mansion on the outskirts of the Maltese capital Valletta.

Between 1949 and 1951 it was a royal residence while Philip served on HMS Chequers with the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet. Those early years of marriage were perhaps the closest the couple got to"normal life" before her coronation in 1953.As well as the bedrooms, the villa has three bathrooms, a grand living room, sea views, a roof terrace, guest and servant quarters and"great historical value", according to estate agents Homes of Quality.But, despite its regal history, it looks a little dilapidated these days, with gardens overgrown and the exterior somewhat faded.

I didn’t know that the band had a home in Malta. You would have thought they might have sold it after Freddie’s passing. Oh well, we learn new and interesting facts each day.
