New wedding space for 2024 - The opening of the refurbished Orangery 

Elevate your wedding experience further with our newly restored Orangery. In January 2023, we embarked on an innovative conservation endeavor aimed at reinstating the roof of The Orangery to its original robust slate composition and is the first Grade 1 listed building to do something of this kind. 

Today, the culmination of our efforts unveils an extraordinary transformation. The Orangery, restored to its former glory, now embraces a captivating bar area and seating arrangement catering to up to 120 guests. This harmonious merger of contemporary chic with timeless charm amplifies the allure of our historic venue, creating the space for your special day.

Couples can enjoy exclusive access to the venue and its idyllic grounds, with gorgeous photo opportunities. In-house catering can be provided by the esteemed culinary staff, who will work with you to create a delectable menu.

Welcome to Blenheim Palace Lodge Retreat

We are delighted to have partnered with Darwin Escapes to create Blenheim Palace Lodge Retreat; a collection of luxury self-catering lodges set in the grounds of our Estate.

The lodges themselves are stunning, and while you won’t want to leave, it’s just a short walk to The Palace where there’s more than enough to keep you busy for your entire stay.

Outdoors you can explore countless nature trails that crisscross our ancient woodlands before relaxing with a lakeside picnic and enjoying ‘The finest view in England’. Indoors you can explore 300 years of history with a host of exhibitions and activities that bring Blenheim Palace alive.

We have got a jam-packed calendar of events for all the family and kids can let their imaginations (and legs) run wild in the Blenheim Palace Adventure Play. Blenheim Palace is much more than a day out and Blenheim Lodge Retreats are the perfect base to start making memories.
