Anmer Hall is situated in the Norfolk village of Anmer in England, about two miles east of The Queen's residence at Sandringham. Leased by the Duke and Duchess of Kent as their country house from 1972 until 1990, it has formed part of the Sandringham estate since 1898.

It is a late-Georgian house, of brick and tile to the front elevations, and of Carstone and tile to the rear and north. The long front comprises eleven bays, with a three-bay central pediment, and the house has two storeys and dormers, with a bell tower slightly off centre. The ground-floor windows are set in blank arches and there is a semicircular porch on two Tuscan columns.

As with all modern royal residences, Anmer Hall is of modest size, with seven principal bedrooms and seven further smaller bedrooms. It is set in fifteen acres of grounds.

In February 1990 the Duke and Duchess of Kent left Anmer Hall, moving to Crocker End House.
