Chevening House is managed by independent trustees. Information about overnight stays by Ministers is not collected centrally. 1 Carlton Gardens is the official residence of the Foreign Secretary and is used for official events and functions in support of FCDO and wider government objectives. Neither the Foreign Secretary nor her predecessor (The Right Honourable Dominic Raab) have stayed overnight at 1 Carlton Gardens in either 2020 or 2021 to date.
