In early November, Prince William, Princess Kate and their children moved to Forest Lodge, an eight-bedroom Georgian mansion located about 15 minutes from their previous home, Adelaide Cottage. Now that they're all settled in and putting the finishing touches on decorating the property, it's time to get ready for Christmas. But for local residents, the security perimeter surrounding their "forever home" means a festive traffic headache.
According to the Daily Mail, local business The Christmas Tree Shop—which opened for the season on November 27—sits on land next to Forest Lodge. But in an effort to protect the royals' privacy and prevent cars from passing directly in front of the family's new house, access routes have been dramatically altered to the tree business.
