Grammy queen Adele has thrown open the doors of her new country pile to give fans a glimpse of the lavish mansion she now calls home.

After scooping six Grammy Awards on Sunday, Adele has proved once and for all the "girl did good" by showing off her luxury abode in West Sussex.

The Rolling in the Deep star is renting the 10-bedroom property for £15,000 a month and she admits the house is a huge improvement from her humble beginnings in Tottenham, north London.

Offering a tour to US TV host Anderson Cooper, she said: "After my first record I moved out of my mum's to Notting Hill on my own. My life fell apart. My phone got cut off, my credit card got cut off, the house was a mess. It was awful. So I moved back in with her.

"I'd rather be defeated than one day come in and the rats would be eating me. It was basically a bedsit with walls."

Adele's 25-acre property is a converted former convent which boasts two swimming pools, a tennis court, a guest cottage, games' room and helicopter hangar.

Let's hope there's a spare room for all her trophies, too!

Anna Hart: Lipgoss: Adele, Petra Ecclestone and Christina Aguilera Have Much Nicer Homes Than You

I'm pleased to bring you some Grade A real estate porn. Here's Adele's 10-bedroom, grade II-listed Home Counties mansion, complete with two swimming pools and 25 acres of greenery... Valued at £7 million, with a monthly rent of £15,000, it's nonetheless a rustic cottage compared to Petra Ecclestone's LA mansion.

Sounds like it would've been wiser to buy instead of renting at 15,000/month. Also seems like a wastefully big space.
But then, what do I know?

What exactly do you do with a place that big? Think about it for a minute, from a practical perspective. Really think about it. Is she going to walk around the house all day? Is she going to ask her extended family to move in with her just to keep her company? How much will she have to spend to maintain the grounds? That's like living in a hotel by yourself. It makes no sense whatsoever. None.

I am 66years old, and have to say that she is brilliant. She is her person, has a fantastic voice. The fact that she is not a size zero doesn't worry her, so why should it worry anybody else. She is one of a very few female singers who can sing live. just look at the likes of Gaga, a freak, Cheryl Cole, Maddonna etc. when did they last stand on a stage and sing live? Good luck to you Adele, you have a great voice and a great personality.

I agree.
There are not many who can hold a note without music~her voice is powerful and sensational....who cares if she's a size 0 or a size 20, it doesn't impact on her voice.
Some of the rooms are classy and adorable~yes it is rather large and she may not use a fraction of it, ut that's her choice. She has worked hard, people love her music and why not spend it as she wishes.
The grounds of the house are fantastic !
I'm green with envy Adele.....and your voice always hits an emotional note with me........you go girl !!

"...It was basically a bedsit with walls." haven't all bedsits got walls? "...her new country pile"?.... not really if it's rented, but the landlord must be happy at £15,000 a month! Nice voice but not too much upstairs (her not the mansion).

Well from most of the comments below it strikes me you have a bad case of the green eyed tiny tim JEALOUS OR WHAT this is where for what ever reason adele wants to live at the moment, and if you were any where near as talented you would do ths same and before any of you say hell no LIARS i would give anything to be in her shoes not only a beautiful voice she shines in every way just watch her performance at the GRAMMY or would it be just to much for you.

can't see the point in renting a house that big for one person, no-one needs a house that big, perhaps it should be made into a hotel instead,

why would you rent, then show off a house that`s not really yours, has she not got the brains to buy? money down the drain if you ask me, mind you, i can`t see her doing the gardening ever, and prob housework , forget it.
