The winners of Britain's biggest-ever lottery prize have given their old house to their cleaner, it was reported today.

Nigel Page and Justine Laycock, who won £56m on the EuroMillions lottery last month, have moved from their home in Cirencester, Gloucestershire, to what has been described as an "eco-friendly £4m mansion".

The Daily Mail reported that the couple's cleaner, Denise Kelso, had moved into their former four-bedroom house with her husband, James.

The paper said she would carry on working for the lottery winners at their new home, near Cirencester.

"They are not living at their old place any more, so they wanted to give it to someone who would appreciate it," a friend of Laycock's was reported as saying.

Kelso, a former pub landlord, has also been given Laycock's Honda Civic, according to reports, with the family having taken possession of a new BMW.

It is not known whether the Kelsos have been gifted ownership of the property or are being allowed to live there rent-free.
