Anticipation for their anticipated relocation - Swirl of impending relocation
The royal family is set to make a significant move later this year, as Prince William and Duchess Kate plan to leave Adelaide Cottage and move into Forest Lodge in Windsor Great Park. The move has caused a stir in the UK, with two families being asked to vacate their cottages near Forest Lodge to make way for the royal family.
The cottages, which were converted from the stables of Forest Lodge, were rented out by the Crown Estate. The tenants of these cottages, who were reportedly surprised by the request, were not served eviction notices but were instead relocated to comparable or better homes within the 4,800-acre Great Park [1][2].
Forest Lodge, a 328-year-old listed building with stucco decoration, marble fireplaces, and Venetian windows, is expected to become the royal family's "forever home." To ensure their privacy and security, new fencing, privacy screens, and shrubbery have been installed around the property, with additional security measures planned [2][5].
The move from Adelaide Cottage to Forest Lodge is not a move to Buckingham Palace in London. Instead, it signifies a shift towards a more secluded and private lifestyle for the royal family. The Forest Lodge, with eight bedrooms, several cottages, a large pond, and a tennis court, is scheduled to become the long-term residence of Prince William, Duchess Kate, and their children, George (12), Charlotte (10), and Louis (7) [3].
It is not specified whether the tenants were given another place to live after being asked to move out of their cottages. The last renovation of Forest Lodge occurred 24 years ago, and it will need renovation before the royal family moves in [4].
A "well-connected source" has stated that the move was not surprising, as the houses are right next to the lodge, and it is understandable that the royal family would not want others living there when they are [6].
