The Royal Lodge has, over the years, undergone many renovations and has slowly transformed from a modest hunting lodge into a larger, grander residence. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, during the reign of King George IV, the Royal Lodge was first operated as a hunting lodge and a retreat for the royal family, adding luxury to its original purpose. It was remodelled to adhere to the king’s tastes, and extra wings and decorative embellishments were added to the property.
