When it comes to royal life, you might imagine uniformed butlers and maids sweeping around the palace, but for some members of the Royal Family, the truth is a bit more normal.

With only four bedrooms, Adelaide Cottage was certainly a downsizing move from the four-story Apartment 1A at Kensington Palace.
