BLEINHEIM PALACE, OXFORDSHIRE


Situated just 8 miles from Oxford, Blenheim Palace is the home of 11th Duke of Marlborough and birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. Set in beautiful parkland of 2100 acres, which was landscaped by 'Capability' Brown in 1760's, the Palace is surrounded by sweeping lawns and formal gardens. This is for me probably the most extraordinary place in the UK. You could easily spend hours and hours just walking around.
