Those visiting Frogmore House won’t be far away from Meghan and Harry themselves, who recently moved toWindsor Castle’s Frogmore Cottageas they prepare for the arrival of their first child.
“It has the most amazing mulberry walk, where we would pick mulberries forPrince Philip‘s mulberry gin,” says a former palace staffer. “And when the Queen is there on a Sunday afternoon, it is a five-minute walk up the hill for tea with Granny. It is gorgeous.”
