AS well as being head of state, the King has an ambitious £45million plan to save a stately home.
His Majesty's charity The Prince's Foundation bought Dumfries House in Ayrshire, Scotland, in 2007.
He never planned to live there but hoped to make it a visitor attraction, helping to regenerate the region.
The estate stretches over 2,000 acres and includes an adventure playground as well as an 18th-century house.
The then Prince of Wales decided to buy it after the upkeep got too much for its previous owners.
His Majesty previously admitted the project was an "appalling risk".
