Itinerary
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Blenheim Palace is home to the 12th Duke and Duchess of Marlborough and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. Set in over 2,000 acres of beautiful Parkland landscaped by ‘Capability’ Brown, the exquisite 18th century Baroque Palace is surrounded by sweeping lawns, formal gardens and the magnificent lake. Boasting over 300 years of history and heritage, Britain’s Greatest Palace is a unique example of English Baroque architecture. Inside, the scale of the Palace is beautifully balanced by the intricate detail and delicacy of the carvings, the hand painted ceilings and the amazing porcelain collections, tapestries and paintings displayed in each room. It houses some of the finest antique collections in Europe.

Traveler reviews
Birthday surprise
Disappointed that we couldn’t visit upstairs. And I was not notified of the works on going
Great Place for Churchill fans to visit
Great Place for Churchill fans to visit for 2 hours. Easy to follow inside and outside route. Learned a lot about the Churchill family. Recommend!
Charismatic driver
Excellent experience-worth every penny to have a private driver especially one as terrific as David Wilshaw. He was very knowledgeable, professional and charming.
Don’t miss visiting Blenheim Palace
Renovating some of the exterior and the ceiling of the main hall. Excellent presentation of Blenheim Palace history. Tour of the private rooms with a knowledgeable guide was very worthwhile.
When there is a large event planned you need to inform the visitor.
There was a triathlon event preparation for the day we visited the palace. We should have been told of this type of event and we could have planned for a different day for a visit should we have known. That being said the staff were wonderful and the palace is beautiful.
