My understanding is that Andrew and Sophie & Edward all have private rooms to live in at BP while Anne has always have private rooms as St James' to live in.
All three have an office (in what ever way royals have an office) to work from and some of their staff are based at BP. We have seen pictures of Andrew at his desk in BP and Anne has, I believe, a set of rooms/room to work from and meet people in as I guess they don't want people going in and out of her private rooms at St James'. I have read in a few biographies/articles etc that Andrew and the Wessex's staff also sometimes work from Royal Lodge/Bagshot but have never really heard this said about Anne's senior staff, I assume at Gatcombe is further away from London that Windsor is.
As such, I don't doubt that M&H's staff will have office space at BP and probably a room or two for the Duke & Duchess to work out of /meet people from. But I wonder if there is room for them to have a set of rooms to live in there or if living wise St James' may still be used.
I suspect the DM is half right (there will be some rooms for M&H staff at BP and maybe officially and office for them) but I question the rooms for staying over in etc being at BP unless Andrew Sophie or Anne are moving out of BP fully.
