Blenheim Palace β€” England's Greatest Country House

Blenheim Palace in Woodstock, Oxfordshire (OX20 1PP) is England's only non-royal property with UNESCO World Heritage Site status and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill (1874). Built between 1705 and 1722 as a gift from the nation to John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough, following his victory at the Battle of Blenheim, the palace is generally considered the finest example of English Baroque architecture. It sits within 2,000 acres of parkland designed by the landscape architect Capability Brown. The palace is approximately 65 miles from central London β€” 75 minutes via the M40/A44.

What to See at Blenheim Palace
  • State Rooms
    The Great Hall, the Long Library (55 metres long), the Saloon, and the First and Second State Rooms contain one of the finest collections of furniture, tapestries, and portraits in England.
  • Churchill Exhibition
    The room where Winston Churchill was born, with exhibits covering his early life at Blenheim.
  • The Formal Gardens
    The Water Terraces, the Italian Garden, and the Rose Garden surround the east and south faces of the palace.
  • The Parkland
    2,000 acres of Capability Brown parkland with the Grand Cascade waterfall, Column of Victory, and the Temple of Diana.
  • The Butterfly House and Maze
    Popular with families β€” two mazes and a butterfly enclosure in the East Courtyard.
Combining Blenheim with Oxford

Blenheim Palace is just 8 miles from Oxford city centre. A morning at Blenheim (allow 3–4 hours for palace, gardens, and grounds) followed by an afternoon in Oxford (the University colleges, the covered market, the Bodleian Library) is one of the most satisfying and popular day trips available from London. We regularly combine both in a single day β€” depart London at 8:30am, Blenheim 10am–1pm, Oxford 1:30pm–5:30pm, back in London by 7:30pm.

Churchill's Grave β€” Bladon Church

Sir Winston Churchill is buried not at Blenheim but at St Martin's Church in Bladon village, 1 mile from the palace gates. Many visitors combine the palace visit with a brief stop at the grave, which is simple, unguarded, and freely accessible at all times.
