Osborne House is correct!

Unpick the clues
The letters os-born-e appear in clue 1 also it was Queen Victoria's holiday home but George VI presented it to the nation.
Clue 2 refers to: Osborne House was built for Queen Victoria as a seaside retreat, but it's also the place where she died.

Well done GM
