Contestants on the fourth series of The Apprentice will share a plush £5million converted warehouse in Battersea.

The Glass Factory, in Candahar Road, is described by one property website as an "exceptional warehouse-style family house".

The programme, which follows Sir Alan Sugar's hunt for a new employee, is said to be spending £3,000 a week to hire the chic Victorian conversion.

Its owner is Scottish peer and ex-racing driver John Crichton-Stuart, otherwise known as the seventh Marquess of Bute.

The 49-year-old, said to be worth £112 million, will earn about £50,000 from renting out the property for the four months it takes to shoot the BBC One series.

The 7,000 sq ft gated home, in a residential area nicknamed Little India, has a huge dining table for up to 20 people, a pod-style office, a playroom and a gym.

There are eight double-sized bedrooms to accommodate the 16 housemates.

Former apprentice contestants stayed in pads in Hampstead, Notting Hill and Chiswick.

The Apprentice on BBC1 on March 26 at 9pm.
