Overview

• Forest Lodge, a circa-328-year-old, eight-bedroom Grade II-listed Georgian lodge in Windsor Great Park owned by the Crown, is identified as their new primary residence.
• Planning applications for minor internal and external works were submitted in June and approved this month by the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead.
• The couple will personally fund all renovation costs and pay market rent for Forest Lodge without drawing on taxpayer money or employing live-in staff.
