Overview

  • Kensington Palace confirmed the Wales family will relocate from Adelaide Cottage to Forest Lodge later this year.
  • The eight-bedroom Georgian lodge sits within Windsor Great Park and lies a shorter school-run distance from Lambrook School.
  • In June the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead approved planning applications for modest internal and external renovations to accommodate the growing family.
  • The Prince and Princess of Wales will privately fund the refurbishment and pay market rent on the property, foregoing live-in staff at the new residence.
  • Unnamed royal sources and media accounts frame Forest Lodge as a long-term family base or ‘forever home’ following recent personal and royal challenges.
