Blenheim Palace

Blenheim Palace is a country house in Woodstock, Oxfordshire. It is the seat of the Dukes of Marlborough and the only non-royal, non-episcopal country house in England to hold the title of palace. The palace, one of England's largest houses, was built between 1705 and 1722.


The palace is named after the 1704 Battle of Blenheim. It was originally intended to be a reward to John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough for his military triumphs against the French and Bavarians in the War of the Spanish Succession, culminating in the Battle of Blenheim. The land was given as a gift, and construction began in 1705, with some financial support from Queen Anne.

Cornbury Park

Cornbury Park is owned by The Lord Rotherwick. The estate includes some 1,700 acres of the most ancient forest in Britain today and is a protected environment for native wildlife, creating a unique habitat in one of the few private forests in England.

Originally a royal hunting lodge, Cornbury Park combines a variety of enterprises from high-quality commercial office space for small and medium-sized businesses in Oxfordshire, to residential house rentals in the beautiful Cotswold setting of Cornbury Park, as well as a limited number of public events such as the world famous Wilderness Festival.
