Experience The Palace
Home to the Dukes of Marlborough since 1705 and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill, Blenheim Palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Step beyond the courtyard into the ornate Palace State Rooms, hung with tapestries and filled with treasures gathered across generations. Pause beneath the Great Hall's soaring painted ceiling and wander the Long Library, home to 10,000 books.
See Churchill's birth room and walk through his life in the Churchill Exhibition, featuring personal items and original paintings.
Explore The Park & Gardens
Stroll through over 2,000 acres of naturalised English landscape shaped by 'Capability' Brown, and take in "the finest view in England."
Get lost in the Marlborough Maze and explore the Walled Garden, designed by Henry Wise in 1707 and the oldest surviving part of the original gardens.
West of the Palace, discover the elegant Water Terraces and Italian Garden, designed by Achille Duchêne, then get back to nature at the Butterfly House and Rowse Honey Hive.
Family Fun at Blenheim Palace
Looking for a day out the whole family will love? Blenheim has something for kids of all ages. Explore our 2,000-acre park and gardens on our Lights Camera Action! film trail, where you can discover where Harry Potter, James Bond and the BFG were filmed.
Get up-close with nature in the butterfly house, take a ride on our miniature train and get lost in the Marlborough Maze.
Join us at our giant Adventure Play, where kids aged 2-12 can climb, slide, jump, whizz, splash and play to their hearts' content. With tunnels, bridges, slides, zip-lines, hidden chambers, water play and more, you and your children can make some fantastic memories.

Help Us Save the Planet
In 2019 Blenheim made a pioneering pledge: to become carbon neutral on scopes 1-3 of the Greenhouse Gas protocol by 2027 and to remove 230,000 tonnes CO2e from the atmosphere by 2050. It’s an ambitious target but one we hope to achieve with our ground-breaking projects.
Gift Aid Really Counts
Blenheim Palace is over 300 years old and needs constant attention. All funds raised through admission charges are invested in vital conservation and restoration projects. In 2025 we undertook our biggest project to date, restoring the Palace roof at a cost of £12 million. Choosing to Gift Aid at checkout allows Blenheim to reclaim 25p for every £1 spent on admission, helping to protect our legacy, and the best bit is that it won’t cost you a penny.
