Actress Meghan, 36, is known to adore the countryside around the wooded hideaway in the north Oxfordshire hills.

A friend said: “The run-up to the wedding has been quite stressful for them and they just wanted to get away and relax before the big day.They like to escape to the country for the weekend and the cottage is just perfect for them.”

The friend added: “It’s very private, has a vast open-plan kitchen and dining area for Meghan to cook in and lots of large windows for the stunning views.”

Renovations have just been completed at the home which has also been made fully secure. A source told The Sun: “Blacked-out Land Rovers have been seen driving up to the property and a lot of security work has been done.

Harry, 33, and Meghan currently live at two-bedroom Nottingham Cottage, one of the smallest properties at Kensington Palace in central London.

They are expected to move to a larger apartment there.

There had been suggestions that The Queen would give them York Cottage in the grounds of her ­Sandringham Estate in Norfolk but this is now thought unlikely.
