Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire

Blenheim Palace is a large country house in Oxfordshire, home to the 11th Duke of Marlborough and birthplace of Winston Churchill. It was built between 1705 and 1722 in the rare and short lived English baroque style and is today one of the largest houses in the country. Inside the scale of grandeur continues with an 180ft library and 67ft high hall. The interior is lavishly decorated with guided tours available through the state rooms.

The 'Untold Story' tells Blenheim's story through animated figures, video and projection technology while there is also an exhibition dedicated to Winston Churchill.

Visitors can enjoy the hedge maze, adventure playground, the plant centre, the butterfly house and, of course, the beautiful grounds designed by Capability Brown. There is also a cafeteria.

The palace hosts many events during the year including concerts, festivals, a Triathlon, Game/Country fair, Jousting and International Horse-Trials.
