Beautiful gardens

The formal gardens of Blenheim were designed by the ninth Duke of Marlborough. During the 1920's, they were then redesigned with the help of Achille Duchene a French landscaper. The gardens are at the back of the palace, a more private section, while the façade as elegant rooms where the royal family was received. The gardens have an audio guide that costs three pounds, but you don't need it to enjoy the gardens.

The guide takes you through the water terrace, a succession of ponds and water down to a river, the rose garden and the arboretum, which has the most prestigious and rare trees of the palace.
