Gary Glitter is living a life of luxury as he settles into a new prison featuring exotic fish ponds and vast lawns, it has been reported.
The 74-year-old paedophile, real name Paul Gadd, recently moved from HMP Albany on the Isle of Wight to HMP The Verne, on the Isle of Portland, Dorset, The Sun reports.
He can play on a giant chess set on the lawn, visit the Category C prison’s own miniature farm or relax at the edge of an ornamental pond full of koi carp.
The 120 inmates’ cells have 20-inch flatscreen TVs and tea-making facilities, and criminals have their own door keys.
The jail, which only houses sex offenders, provides a gym and an all-weather football pitch.
A source told The Sun: ‘They have special privileges as they are older prisoners deemed to be well behaved.’
The source added: ‘It’s like a holiday camp in there. To think some of these people have raped children, the public would be disgusted to see how they live.
‘Because it’s all sex offenders together they feel safe and there is no trouble.’
