Windsor castle was also one of the late Queen's favourite homes even after seeing the ghost, the report further said.

“[The Queen’s] footsteps can be heard on the bare floorboards, before her striking presence appears," the report said.

Witnesses told the Mirror that they can see a figure “looking longingly out of the window” and King George III was also seen waiting in the room below the library, the report said.

Windsor is not the only property to have spotted ghosts, the report claimed.

Queen Elizabeth II, the UK's longest-serving monarch, died at Balmoral aged 96 in September, after reigning for 70 years. She died peacefully at her Scottish estate.
