You're standing at Osborne House in East Cowes, on the Isle of Wight. This was the summer home of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Look at the two belvedere towers. Albert designed the house himself, in the style of an Italian Renaissance palazzo, together with the London builder Thomas Cubitt. It went up between 1845 and 1851.
