Parade your pooch in our Formal Gardens from
1st September - 4th October

Enjoy the o-paw-tunity to walk your four legged friend through our Formal Gardens this autumn!

This autumn, we are once again opening our Formal Gardens, Great Court and Walled Garden to your four-legged friend from Tuesday 1st September until Sunday 4th October. It's the perfect opportunity to bring your pooch along as the Formal Gardens and Parkland shift into ochre and rust tones. Pause in the Great Court, take a slow walk through the Water Terraces, and let your dog explore alongside you as autumn settles in. Don't forget to snap a photo of your four-legged companion during your visit, and share it on social media with #DogsOfBlenheim.

To help your dog stay happy and hydrated, water stations will be dotted throughout the Courtyards and Walled Garden area. Please note that dogs will not be permitted inside the Palace, Adventure Play, Stables Café, the Orangery Restaurant or the Walled Garden Pizzeria (with the exception of assistance dogs). However, they do remain welcome in the Oxfordshire Pantry if you want to relax with a hot drink after your walk.

Please keep your dog on a lead at all times for the safety of our livestock and the consideration of other visitors, as well as ensuring you clean up after them using the waste bins provided and avoid leaving them unattended in your vehicle.

For even more canine capers, come along to DogFest on the 3rd and 4th October for a weekend of activities, shopping and tail wagging fun.
