Fall in love all over again at Blenheim Palace

Oxfordshire-based attraction, Blenheim Palace has announced a specially themed afternoon tea, thoughtful gift boxes and plenty of date day ideas to celebrate Valentine’s Day.

Whether you’re marking the occasion with friends, family or the one you love most, indulge in an afternoon tea for two in the newly restored Orangery at Blenheim Palace. For £60 per person enjoy savoury delights including Coronation chicken buns, truffle & egg brioche soldiers, smoked salmon & beetroot on rye and cucumber, dill & cream cheese fingers.

Sweet treats include strawberry Eton Mess tartlets, Opera cake, chocolate truffles, French macaroons, red velvet cake and both plain and fruit scones with preserves and clotted cream.

Britain’s Greatest Palace is the ultimate spot for a Valentine’s date day. From a stroll through the Formal Gardens and roaming the grounds to The Temple of Diana, where Winston Churchill proposed to Clementine Hozier and finding your way out of the beautiful Marlborough Maze, to tours of the fabulous Palace State Rooms featuring priceless collections where centuries of history can be uncovered – 300 years of history, to be precise, there’s so much to see and do at the award-winning UNESCO World Heritage Site.

If you’re travelling to Oxford from further afield, make Valentine’s Day even more special and take advantage of the special offer when you stay at Blenheim Palace Lodge Retreat by Darwin Escapes. Guests can use the exclusive code LOVEBLENHEIM14 upon checkout to enjoy 14% off the romantic lodge break until 29th February when booked before 14th February.

What’s more, to celebrate Valentine’s Day, the Blenheim Palace gift shop also has exclusive Valentine’s Gift Boxes for £26.95. Featuring Blenheim Palace White Chocolate & Raspberry Shortbread, Cabernet Rose Wine, luxury chocolates and Strawberry & Marc De Champagne Jam, the Palace’s range of limited edition Valentine’s gifts can be bought in store or online.

Rest assured that when you enjoy a trip to Blenheim Palace, tickets are treated as charitable donations to the Blenheim Palace Heritage Foundation and as a thank you the UNESCO World Heritage Site automatically converts Palace, Park and Gardens tickets into Annual Passes at no extra cost. This means you can purchase one day and enjoy Blenheim for a whole year.
