Blenheim PALACE

Blenheim Palace is a magnificent country house in Woodstock boasting impressive Baroque architecture, landscaped parkland and formal gardens. It makes for an inspiring venue for events such as weddings, private dinners, corporate conferences and company celebrations. It is the seat of the Duke of Marlborough and the only non-royal, non-episcopal building to hold the title of a palace.

The Great Hall provides a spectacular banqueting venue and can be used in conjunction with The Saloon, the Palace’s state dining room, for a drinks reception beforehand. The Long Library is a grand gala dinner venue, while The Orangery offers a truly elegant room with high ceilings and great-arched windows that fill the room with natural light. It is ideal for wedding ceremonies as well as drinks, dinner and dancing.

In summer, 2,000 acres of gardens, 90 of which are formal gardens, set the scene for idyllic summer garden parties. Guests can also opt to dine in specially-created marquee pods overlooking the Italian garden for more intimate events.
