Jeffrey JamesOctober 12, 2014Really beautiful grounds! Dog friendly outside of the palace. The palace interior was beautiful, but only one floor to walk in. The Ai weiwei exhibition was random & out of place in its surroundings.

Steve AAugust 26, 2014If you are traveling to Oxford or the Cotswolds you owe it to yourself to visit Blenheim Palace. The home of the Duke of Marlboro is one of the grandest homes in England not belonging to the Queen.
- Gordon PayneSeptember 17, 2016Come in through the Woodstock gate for a breathtaking and unique view of the house and grounds - £25 seems a lot but it's great value
FilmsquareAugust 23, 2013The lakes of Blenheim Palace were used for a brief scene in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) in which Harry looks into Prof. Snape's memories and sees him being bullied by James Potter
Kirsty AllenMarch 3, 2016Don't miss the cafe, the cakes are delicious. Especially the carrot cake. They also do soy milk and gluten free cakes.
JNETApril 10, 2015Stunning estate and grounds. Don't just enjoy the palace. Venture out to the fountains and walk about to the various gardens.
- Steve AMarch 31, 2016It's a spectacular house and the ancestral seat of the Dukes of Marlborough. If you are anywhere nearby you must visit.
Finders KeepersAugust 20, 2010Set in 2100 acres of parkland, the exquisite palace is surrounded by gardens & the magnificent Lake. Inside, visitors can see hand-painted ceilings & porcelain collections, tapestries and paintings.
Gardens, exhibitions, walks and jousting. Afternoon tea time was very enjoyable, too.
John MurdochOctober 2, 2013Amazing place. The maze is great. Guided tour worth going on. Food in restaurant good.
Karen ZlwOctober 30, 2016Amazing! You have to spend the hole day in here to see everything in this wonderful place.
Nice walks towards the Lakeside. Check out the waterfall right in the top left corner.
Mark GarnerFebruary 22, 2015Public footpaths run through the grounds, use these to access the grounds for free. They charge a fortune if you pay at the gate.
Neil AnsticeJune 7, 2012Use one of the various 'public gates' around the perimeter for FREE access to the grounds. ;)
- Tim SparrowSeptember 24, 2011You can exchange your palace and garden ticket for an annual pass for free, after your first trip.
Lovely place - don't be put off by the overly officious staff - it's still well worth a visit.- Courtenay BirdAugust 30, 2010Stunning home and property. Don't miss Churchill's velvet pajamas and slippers tucked partly behind a door in his exhibit.

Roost OnlineJuly 6, 201010k (ish) run loop from Bladon Gate, around the lake, up to behind the monument and back. Great for a sunny July evening.
Viacheslav KharitonovNovember 14, 2016Красивый дворец. Но не очень понятно куда идти. При входе если не пойти сначала налево то не попадёте на второй этаж. А там тоже интересно.
Maria ClaudiaAugust 20, 2015Es hermoso, el mejor lugar para hacer picnic, se puede ir en bus desde oxford (S3)
Alan x el mundoMay 20, 2016Precioso lugar! Me gustó más que Windsor Castle. Dedíquenle todo el día si pueden.
