The couple are set to move into Adelaide Cottage this summer

Adelaide Cottage - a four-bedroom property - is located on the 655-acre Windsor estate which means the family will be much closer to the Queen at Windsor Castle.

The royals will also be much closer to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's UK home of Frogmore Cottage as well as Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson's mansion, Royal Lodge.
