Why stay here
8.5A lodge stay on the Blenheim Estate, with the Palace, estate trails and historic landscape close at hand.
The draw is the combination of a self-catering lodge base and a place-rich setting: Blenheim Palace describes estate nature trails through ancient woodland, lakeside picnics and extensive history. It is less about remote seclusion than having a substantial historic landscape on the doorstep.
