Guests to Frogmore Estate have snapped pictures metres from Prince Harry and Meghan's private home.
Enthusiastic gardeners have gained an up close and personal look at the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's private home, even trying to peek in the windows for a glimpse of baby Archie.
The grounds of Frogmore Estate opened to the public for three days as part of the National GardenScheme, allowing visitors to wander about freely, news.com.au reported.
Gardener Brendan Byrne snapped pictures of peonies - one of Meghan Markle's favourite flowers sent to her by Prince Harry in the early days of their relationship.
Journalist Sophia Money Coutts said it was "mad how close you can get" and there was a "couple of windows open and two shiny cars out front so someone's there."
"Although how they're getting Archie to sleep under this flight path is beyond me. Absolute racket," she wrote.
Down here for the day. Only open three days a year. Roughly a million policemen hanging about with guns and have already heard a chap say Frogmore Cottage 'doesn't look very nice' whereupon his wife shot him A Look. pic.twitter.com/TmuY1FlkQ2

The couple moved to Frogmore Cottage in Windsor in early May, ahead of the birth of baby Archie Harrison. It was also the venue for their star-studded wedding in May 2018.
Pictures showed a traditional English garden with rambling roses and a wildflower style meadow next to manicured lawns at the front of Frogmore House.
The huge gardens were laid out in the 1790s and include lakes, glades, walks and bridges, as well as a summerhouse in "gothic ruin" style and a teahouse made for Queen Victoria.

The cottage has reportedly undergone an extensive renovation, including money spent on soundproofing to block out the noise from nearby Heathrow, where planes land up to 28 times an hour.
Another visitor said she could see windows open and cars in the drive, but the front of the house was blocked from public view "due to trees and bushes."
The Duke of Sussex is expected to meet with President Trump at a lunch hosted by the Queen on Monday, while the Duchess of Sussex will avoid the engagement as part of her maternity leave.
