Picture this: a four-bedroom house that feels more like a fancy, cozy cottage than a palace. It’s actually pretty modest by royal standards. I’m talking no grand ballroom, just real living space.
They moved there in 2026, and it was a massive lifestyle shift. The big reason? School runs for George, Charlotte, and Louis.
Their kids go to Lambrook School, which is a three-minute walk from the cottage. Talk about a commute upgrade, right?
The cottage itself is super charming. It has a green roof, a private garden, and even a tennis court. But don’t let the cozy vibe fool you—it’s still got secret underground tunnels from the 1800s. Because, of course it does.
Why Not Frogmore or Kensington?
Ah, the old Frogmore Cottage debate. You know, the one Harry and Meghan used to live in? Yeah, that’s not their jam anymore.
William and Kate refused to take it over after Harry left. Too much drama, too many memories. They wanted a fresh start.
Kensington Palace is still their official London pad. It’s Apartment 1A, a giant 20-room spread. But they hardly ever sleep there now.
They use it for meetings, photoshoots, and the occasional overnight stay. But for daily life? It’s all about Windsor.
