Blenheim Palace is one of those places that feels grand the moment you arrive. Set in over 2,000 acres of parkland on the edge of Woodstock in Oxfordshire, it's a stately home like no other – not just a family seat, but a UNESCO World Heritage Site with sweeping views, a rich history and more than a few surprises tucked behind those golden stone walls. Whether you're into gardens, art, architecture or a good cream tea, there's something about the place that draws you in.

The palace was built in the early 18th century as a gift from Queen Anne to John Churchill, the 1st Duke of Marlborough, in recognition of his victory at the Battle of Blenheim. Designed by Sir John Vanbrugh, it's a bold mix of Baroque flair and aristocratic power, and it's famously the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. Over the centuries, it's been home to the Marlborough family, survived political rows and financial struggles, and stood proud through it all. The rooms are crammed with portraits, tapestries and curios, and every corner has a story to tell.

The town of Woodstock wraps itself neatly around the palace gates. It's full of charm, with honey-coloured buildings, indie shops and cosy pubs. There's a real buzz here, especially on market days. You'll find antique shops, bakeries and traditional inns like The Bear or The King's Arms. The Oxfordshire Museum sits just outside the palace walls, and the river Glyme adds a scenic backdrop. Just beyond, you can wander through the countryside or hop on the Oxfordshire Way walking route. There's no shortage of tea rooms either, and the locals are used to a steady stream of visitors.

Once you've done Blenheim, the rest of Oxfordshire's well worth exploring. Oxford itself is just down the road with its iconic colleges, Bodleian Library and endless cultural spots. Head west and you're into the Cotswolds, full of winding lanes, stone cottages and market towns like Chipping Norton and Burford. There's also Bicester Village for shopping, Didcot for railway history, and plenty of green spaces, gardens and walking trails scattered across the county. Henley-on-Thames, Abingdon and Thame all bring their own charm to the mix.

Getting to Blenheim Palace's pretty straightforward. If you're driving, it's just off the A44, a short hop from the A34 and M40. There's ample parking, and if you're on public transport, the S3 and 7 bus routes run regularly from Oxford. For the train, Oxford Parkway is the closest station, with good links into London and beyond. From there, you can jump on a local bus or grab a taxi. London Oxford Airport is nearby in Kidlington, mostly for private and charter flights, while Heathrow is your best bet for international travel.

Oxfordshire's the sort of county that blends the old and new effortlessly. It's got the academic brilliance of Oxford, the peace and prettiness of the countryside, and just enough going on to keep it lively without being hectic. History runs through it, from Roman remains to medieval churches and Georgian mansions. At the same time, there's innovation – science parks, start-ups and eco-friendly projects cropping up alongside traditional farms and stately homes. It's the kind of place where you can take it slow, soak up the scenery, and still feel connected to the world.
