Forest Lodge, nestled within Windsor Great Park, is set to become a deeply meaningful place for the Prince and Princess of Wales as they begin a new chapter in family life. Royal experts say the home reflects Kate’s desire to keep things “real” and grounded — even behind palace walls.
While every new year brings fresh beginnings, 2026 will mark an especially significant turning point for Kate Middleton. Not only will Prince George be starting senior school, but it will also be the first full year the Wales family spends in their new residence, Forest Lodge.
The impressive eight-bedroom Georgian mansion is being described as the family’s “forever home” and represents a major upgrade from their previous four-bedroom Adelaide Cottage. Located in Windsor Great Park, the move comes at a hopeful moment, as Kate’s health continues to improve following her cancer treatment. The new home offers the chance to create joyful memories and leave behind one of the most challenging periods of the couple’s lives.
