A look at Frogmore House

Shortly before the Queen died in September, Prince William and Kate, Princess of Wales moved into Adelaide Cottage, a relatively modest property in Windsor. The couple moved in with their three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, to start a new life in the countryside.Situated in Windsor Home Park, Adelaide Cottage was a lesser-known royal property before the Wales family called it home. It was once inhabited by King George VI’s equerry and Princess Margaret’s love interest, Group Captain Peter Townsend.Adelaide Cottage is a four-bedroom home, meaning there is just enough room for Kate and William and their three children.It is thought Adelaide was picked because it didn’t require extensive renovations similar to those undertaken on the couple’s Apartment 1A in Kensington Palace.But rumours had swirled that other royal residences were in the running to be the Waleses’ next home, including Frogmore House.READ MORE: Kate shares first glimpse inside new home – ‘decor is almost iconic’ Kate and William have spent a lot of time at Frogmore House with the Royal Family over the years (Image: GETTY) Frogmore House is located in Windsor (Image: GETTY)Located near to Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex’s UK residence of Frogmore Cottage, Frogmore House is much grander in size and design.In previous centuries Frogmore House was used by Queen Charlotte, who purchased the property, as a country retreat.Queen Victoria also allowed her mother, the Duchess of Kent, to live at the property between 1841 and 1861.A Grade-II listed property, Frogmore House is full of precious paintings and antiques.DON’T MISS:Princess Charlotte’s room at Adelaide Cottage is ‘haunted’ – claim [INSIGHT]Expert claims Kate Middleton ‘anxious’ after ‘very difficult time’ [ANALYSIS]Inside Windsor Castle where Kate & William won’t be moving to just yet [PICTURES] Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex hosted their wedding reception at Frogmore House (Image: GETTY) Kate shared a glimpse inside Adelaide Cottage when she recorded a message about addiction (Image: KENSINGTON PALACE – TWITTER) George, Charlotte and Louis were pictured on their first day of school at Lambrook (Image: GETTY)Their move to Windsor also means there’s plenty of outdoor space for the children and they can all attend school together for the very first time.Before the move to Windsor, George and Charlotte were enrolled at Thomas’s Battersea, a private school in London.But now Prince Louis is old enough to go to school, the Prince and Princess opted to send their royal trio to a prestigious private school – Lambrook.In the same week the Queen died, the Wales family were pictured beaming as they arrived at Lambrook for the children’s first day at school.
