We wondered whether to go since many reviews said it's too expensive. But we do not live in Europe so cannot see palaces every day, so we signed up. We took the bus there and because we did, we got a significant reduction in the admission price. We really enjoyed our day. Perhaps a few too many people but to be expected at any major attraction. The State Rooms are stunning and the audio tour well done. There was a very interesting Churchill exhibition at the end. The grounds are superb. We had signed up for the buggy ride of the grounds because we cannot walk too well. Well worth it - the guide was wonderful - informative and fun. And again the reviews were not very complementary of the cafe. We had coffee, a sandwich and cake at the Oxfordshire Pantry and found it really good. The price was on a par with other cafes we have been to and the coffee was the best we've had in Oxford. The service could have been a little faster but very pleasant surroundings.

We visited Blenheim Palace on 30 August 2023 on our way to Peterborough and had not thought of purchasing tickets in advance. We were helped in this process by a fabulous helper called Zara who made the process seem quite simple. She was polite, knowledgeable, friendly and did not treat us as idiots. The grounds were fabulous with only the walled gardens being a little disappointing. We did not have time to visit the house but will return to complete our tour.

Lovely grounds. Gift shop is very nice. Stables cafe is nice - visit the renovated stables area attached to Stables Cafe with the stables area set up as it used to be. We didn’t go in the house as we felt it was too pricey at £35 each. It’s card only on the whole site so be prepared if you use apple pay etc - keep your phone charge up.

A must see! Worth the entrance fee. You will want to spend a whole day if you have time. The staff are very knowledgeable with history of the palace. You have the ability to use a hand held voice tour or scan QR code to listen on your phone. Outside you can walk the palace grounds. The Winston Churchill exhibit is really good. You can get there by taxi or bus. You can walk to near by Woodstock to get the bus. It takes 15-20 minutes or so to walk there. This was suggested to us by our taxi driver. Great history lesson learned. There was constitution going, so part of the area was not available to tour.

Beautiful place to visit, so much to see! A variety of different exhibits and room to tour and walk through. The grounds themselves are beautiful if it is a nice day out - you could spend all day walking them! The palace gardens were some of the most beautiful we saw during our entire trip to the U.K.! Wonderful assortment of cafes and food stands. The miniature train was a fantastic way to carry passengers from the Palace to the gardens. We greatly enjoyed our time there!

Make sure you wear your walking shoes as there so much to see and a lot of walking. Well worth the £35 annual pass. Palace and the Churchill Exhibition are interesting. The Gardens are beautiful and the Maze is a little bit of fun. The Winston Train is a nice short journey from the palace to the Walled garden. A special thanks to Sylvian (apologies if name spelt wrong) who gave us the Lights, Action Camera Tour. He was great fun and full of knowledge and we really enjoyed our tour with him. Definitely go on the tour with this lovely gentleman if you have the chance. He was brilliant. Another member of staff named Pinder was lovely too. As was the gentleman who scanned the tickets to the Palace entrance. All staff are so friendly and knowledgeable. A great historical site and well worth the visit. I will definitely go again.

We visited July last year but had an annual pass and made use of it again in June and July 2023! We had 3 wonderful visits. Each visit was hot and dry. We explored the Palace, the grounds, the maze, the butterfly House and had a lovely lunch at the pizzeria. We also picniced twice. Each visit we did something new. We would definitely think about going again in a few years and explore the grounds a bit more. Highly recommend. Such a stunning Palace!

We chose to walk round the lakes and grounds which was lovely. Very clean and peaceful although it was fairly busy it didn't seem like it when walking around. Excellent ploughman's lunch reasonably priced in their cafe. Very helpful staff - It was great to see the cafe, shop and toilets open to people who just wanted to enjoy the grounds.

This was a really interesting place. Really beautiful architecture and art work. The staff are really knowledgeable and happy to chat and answer questions. Also happy to help with any queries. It was a well thought out tour and the exhibition on Churchill was really good. I love history and I loved how they explained his connections to the family and Blenheim. The stable cafe was lovely and we enjoyed the best scone here it was so tasty and hot. The gardens are stunning and although the fountains and water features were being cleaned nearest the to the building, this was not a problem as also gives you an insight into all the work they have to do on the estate. We had left our children at home for this trip so never seen any of the attractions for kids. Lots of people there with little ones so I am assuming it is quite popular locally. Will definitely have to go again and hopefully take my daughter who is a huge Bridgeton fan.

Was really looking forward to visiting , but unfortunately very sadly disappointed, we thought for the cost of the tickets we would of gotten to see way more of the actual rooms in the palace, we thought charging extra to go upstairs and down stairs was out of order , as did a lot of others that we spoke to . We were very miffed that there was so much work taking place and we were unable to have access to specific areas. The grounds are lovely but again alot of work taking place which prevented enjoyment . For the overall cost and what you get to see we did not find this value for money . On entering the cafe we found the prices outrageous. We have been to numerous other castles and homes within the area and found them to be much better value for money, friendlier and everything included in the ticket price instead of squeezing every penny for individual areas of interest. Would not recommend as we felt underwhelmed.
